    I felt that the movie was incomplete.

    First of all Karabeti was awful. Goulioni was perfect. Goulioni's Eftixia was a strong woman with a strong opinion. Karabeti was the exact opposite. It was like they were 2 different people.They should continue with Goulioni. I felt that a lot of her story was missing and at the end I felt that the movie was incomplete. I was expecting more.

    Highly recommend it...

    "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.
