The Purple Rose of Cairo

Watched for my film class and can say I really enjoyed the movie. The main characters life was so sad and made me really hate her husband. I was really rooting for her so when the ending twist happened I was left upset / unsatisfied. Great movie with great writing and unique plot

I watched this in film class and this was a unique, fun and emotional experience. All aspects of this film were great and even though the ending disappointed me at first I understand why as it illustrated the point of movies only allow us to escape for a bit. I loved this one.
