Schultze Gets the Blues

Leighton: *** Sabine: ***
Schultze is an accordian playing German forced into early retirement at the salt mine where he works. His routine of gardening and playing polka music is a little dull and monotonous. Then one day he hears some zydeco music on the radio and it captures his imagination. This is a cute movie with some beautiful scenery. It is a little slow at times. Maybe this is to make the viewer relate more to Schultze. But it's still slow at times even when he gets to America. Overall, it was a decent movie, though.

Is this a foreign film? Sounds interesting but you know me and subtitles.
It is a foreign film. It's mostly in German. Interestingly, while watching with subtitles the English parts were subtitled, too.
