I just finished watching VITUS, after refraining from renting it for several weeks, thinking it was yet another documentary about some gifted child. NOT at all. It's a wonderful film, wonderful story, great acting....no sex, violence, profanity, and a very uplifting story, yet not sappy or sentimental. If you want to be awed and feel good after watching a film, I highly recommend it!
If you've already seen it, I'd like to hear your thoughts!

I've never heard of it...Is it an old film?

It's in the newer rentals at the video stores. It's about a very gifted little fella who shows exceptional talent as a pianist. I'm quite a movie buff, and watch all kinds of films. I liked NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN, and GONE BABY GONE. I watch all kinds, but this is nothing like those I just mentioned. I won't spoil it for you by outlining the plot or characters, but it really is excellent. As I mentioned earlier, I thought it was a documentary, and so refrained from renting it for quite a while. At my store, it is now a "5 day rental" since it's been around for a while. I just felt so good after watching it!
