The greatness of this movie has to be divided into 3 parts:
First - the interesting historic and personal story, telling a tale of a true dreamer,living a life grander than reality.
Second - the cinematic beauty of the scenes, new ones and old ones, with all the songs and dances, that even non lovers of musicals will appreciate. The film displays also a vivid revival of a time of innocence, with all its nostalgic fashion, music, and architecture.
Third - the spectrum of emotions, from adoration and admiration, to vanity and ruin, through a lot of humor!
