About
If you want a grounded political drama with musicians caught up in state power, “The International” may work for you; Not for you if you prefer light romance or straightforward feel-good stories, like “Miss Granny” or “As It Is in Heaven.”
Pros: tense political tension; memorable era setting; focused on music | Cons: limited character depth; heavy historical mood
