Ballad in Blue Audience Reviews

Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Dotbankey A lot of fun.
Merolliv I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
