    amazed

    I am amazed at the amount of comments. I would like to thank the guy who said that even the ugly guys were attractive (I played Pee Wee Russel) Like many I think the music is great but oh the script not entirely the directors fault English not his first language, view his films in Italian they are breathtaking.
