“The Palace's first night premiered "Amy", an Austrailian
film by Nadia Tass that got a standing ovation for its mixture of
drama and comedy in the story of a young girl who stops talking
after seeing her father, a rock star, electrocuted on
stage...
..."Amy" has many tones: Tragedy, comedy, romance, melodrama,
and Tass moves between them with perfect confidence, creating an
enchanting, almost fantastical, story that has its feet firmly
planted in reality.” |
