Eftihia

A great film that everyone must see, It's a big lesson to appreciate the life and the beloved people...!!!!

Mediocre and at times cringeworthy this movie has alot of editing and pacing issues. The performances are overall decent but some scenes are extremely overacted. The songs are excellent ofcourse but it's a shame they couldn't implement them in the story and they made up the 'award' section. It's worth a watch on tv but nothing more.

"Eftyhia" is a Biography - Drama movie in which we follow the life of Eftyhia Papagianopoulou, an important and one of the best songwriters of Greece. We follow her from her early life to her big success and also her social life during the same period.

I liked this movie very much because it is based on the life of one of the greatest songwriters of Greece. It has also a very interesting plot and story that is easy to follow and also presents some big truths about Greece. The direction which was made by Angelos Frantzis is simply exceptional and he presented very well the life story of Eftyhia Papagianopoulou with the ups and downs of her. Regarding the interpretations of both Karyofyllia Karabeti who played as Eftyhia Papagianopoulou (Older) and Katia Goulioni who played as Eftyhia Papagianopoulou (Younger), I have to say that they were both simply amazing. Other interpretations that have to be mentioned were Thanos Tokakis' who played as Loukas, Pigmalion Dadakaridis' who played as Giorgos Papagiannopoulos and Dina Mihailidou's who played as Marioga. In conclusion, I have to say that "Eftyhia" is an amazing movie and I believe that it's one of the best greek movies therefor, I highly recommend everyone to watch it.

This movie has it all; nice photography, adequate directing, good acting and nice soundtrack, except from the script. If you are not familiar either with the protagonist or with her songs, this movie doesn't concern you. In an effort to portray the main character and her life as close to reality as possible, it would have been better to make a docu-style mini series. If you want to have the audience's interest you have to make them sympathize with the hero of the story. This film doesn't get there. Instead of approaching the story from an anthropocentric point of view, it does so from a reporting one. It gathers all the main events of the hero's life and links them uncohesively. The end result is pleasant aesthetically but uninteresting story-wise.

Such a great movie. All the actors were magnificent as well was the direction. The plot made us feel every moment like as if we were there. I truely believe that everyone must see this movie
