    Seen it, Met the Man, wish I could be positive...

    I have seen the English spoken version of Hwerow Hweg, otherwise known as Bitter Sweet. Unfortunately I was rather disappointed. I found the acting rather poor, the music annoying, the script lifeless and story confusing. However there are some good shoots and Antal has made good use of the local areas. I wish I could be more positive about this film as having being taught by him for a few works on screenwriting, you discover the man has, as he likes to call it 'fire in your belly'. Hope his future work has more promise, good luck Antal.
