- Quirky, Thoughful, Joyful
I first saw this movie on a cable movie station and loved it so much I ordered it from Amazon. I have shown it to friends and family whose ages range from 25 to 82 and they all loved it.It has a quirky humor to it that is hilarious but can also be subtle.The theme involving how people who are so different at first glance may find common ground in unexpected ways is delightful.The sorrow and joy that imbues the film is an inspiration.The acting is excellent, as is the dialogue and story line. ...

Rating: - Illumination
Hilarious interpretations of the English language, very intriguing, mysterious storyline journey. An altogether original film. Read the book afterwards--it's even more complex.
Rating: - EVERYTHING IS ILLUMINATED
My brother and I had planned almost the same trip to trace the roots of both my mother and father.
Before going I did some research and found there is no evidence remaining that their family ever existed.

- Any DVD extras
Movie fine and funny - that is why the rating.But nobody in primary reviews says - nor does Amazon - if there are any extras - particularly interested in deleted scenes since they are mentioned in IMDB.Only want DVD's including such, so would like to know.
Rating: - Great Movie.Need to watch it twice.
This is a great movie.It did not get much attention, but is a great film.The decision to come at this story from the travel guide's perspective is wonderful.Highly recommend this film.
