Reviews
"Ironically for a film about a poet, it's the scenes without
words, or rather the scenes where excerpts from Arenas' wonderful
poetry and prose are read by Bardem in the original Spanish over
magical images and Carter Burwell's hypnotic music that are the
most successful." - Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times, Dec.
22, 2000.
"Carter Burwell's beautiful score is sparingly heard, alongside
a wealth of Cuban tunes and additional music by Lou Reed and Laurie
Anderson." - David Rooney, Variety, Sept. 9, 2000.
