Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great film; as little more plot could of helped
Review: I loved this film, don't get me wrong. there was absulutely no problems with what the film contained. It was rather intresting the way the story line devolped and the "mini- stories" that went along with the music. in a way that did devolp a plot in this movie, but in a way, it was not enough. There was no real purpose on this film, no center focus at all. Instead the director jumps from story line to story line which makes it a little more diffricult to enjoy. If the director kept with one ongoing theme thought each one suite then this film would be a five star film.

Otherwise this film is a thumbs up to the Yo Yo Ma fan. This film makes an intresting depiction on Yo Yo Ma and his Cello style. Yo Yo Ma once again demonstrates the bueaty of the cello because each and eveery scene shows an image that goes along with all the movements. for example, the flower garden was used to describe one of the suites making Yo Yo Ma painting more of a picture, than just playing the cello. This type of film engages the veiwers' attention and makes this film enjoyable.

Some of the talks with Yo Yo Ma are really worth the time to listen to. If you were a cellist, you could understand his style and really just coping his style by the pictures he implies.

For instance, on one of the suites he uses it to descibe a garden. Then going from there Yo Yo Ma shows the many ways one movement can show a Garden of some sort. there are many intresting aspects to this including with such a skilled director making this film.
