Very good for Bulgarian movie
DesiAnge18 July 2015
I watched the movie last night, as a part of a movie festival here in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. The movie is good (for Bulgarian movie) and i actually liked it. They are two plot lines - from one side the dramatic historical facts about the Bulgarian citizens from Jewish backgrounds during the World War II and from other side it is a sweet love story ..... or actually a couple of them. The quantity of drama is significant, but there are also some funny moments about typical Bulgarian manner of living. On some places the script is a bit too colorful and some of the scenes are overacted. The acting game is very good. The roles are given to some of the best Bulgarian actors, so it couldn't be otherwise.

An attractive blend of basically true stories
Nozz6 January 2015
In Bulgarian Rhapsody, we meet a manic pixie dream girl whose hobby is geography. To her, geography is an escape into fantasy; but ironically the lines on the globe prove all too real because-- this being Bulgaria during World War II-- the Jews in the older areas of Bulgaria are destined to live while those in newly annexed areas are destined to die. The movie is adapted from the reminiscences of several Bulgarian survivors, and it is a "rhapsody" in that, as the dictionary says, it "is meant to express a lot of emotion and does not have a regular form." The stories blend into each other in kind of an irregular fashion, but they occupy a firm and engrossing framework of time and place.

unique pleasure
ss3829 September 2014
A tender and beautiful love story set in times of fascist plague. The three youngsters are remarkably true and disarmingly charming. The acting of the young actress is very true and powerful. The two young actors are equally tenaciously sensitive and marvelously convincing. The trio in love is the leading tune of this tender story set in the bloodshed and war horror of WWII. And probably after more than 70 years from the historic events( part of the "frame " ) of Bulgarian PHAPSODY this is the only possible way to recall history with the little tales of the people who were the unfortunate suffering punished to live at this period.

Bulgarian Rhapsody is film for dreamers! Before to falling love, get busted, make a good run or bad luck escape from jail cell, flying to Britian to fall in love or find spirited dancer girlfriend! To the moon and back - imagination from ours legendary friends, thanksgiving contribution and get ''verifying ours issue access''! It is a lovely screenplay Extraordinary Gentlemen - character Moni (Kristiyan Makarov) his no longer ordinary boy but is bright young and mellow. Scenario is similar to The Book Thief with Geoffrey Rush where the results are simply spectacular. Fresh, iconic, inspiring, original and untiarly magnificent. Bulgarian Rhapsody is unique and delightful experience and awaits your applause! The film is the latest costume ever made John Phillips London for a v.i.p. Customer with golden cuffs, specifically with theirs initials. In this motion away we've create the thanksgiving stageplay Romeo and Juliet - Moni and Sheli! Shelli (Anjela Nedyalkova) is a stalwart landmark in the very heart of London, surrounded by the film most iconic actors. For well over an one and the half hour the Shelli has been a destination in itself, and pleasantly surprice on the crossroads of London's most fabulous locations. With some of the world's best acting play performances on ours doorstep, the film is flanked by the glamour of Mayfair, the history is still commercial! And the creativity of all cast and crew when all is said and done, ours location is indeed one-of-a-kind!
