Some good and some bad acting in this movie. As almost always is the case... the book is way better.

Won Best Foreign Academy Award in 1987... why you ask... because it's good... finally a dutch movie with a story to tell and without numerous sexscenes which add nothing to the story... (turkish delight excluded ofcourse ;)
