BAD movie!

I had never seen anything from Paulo Branco before.
BUT i did not like this movie... what a waist of money :(

The Inner Life of Martin Frost is basically a story from Paul Auster that should have been a book and not a film.
That's the most common mistake that writers make. They visualize their works on the big screen and don't feel like making any changes. They don't see that there is a difference between both art forms, which needs to be understood and kept. The movie has no visual interest whatsoever. I think the movie would have done a little better without a narrator and if the camera angles would have been picked more carefully.

The things I liked about it were the soundtrack, the two male actors and finally the short singing of Sophie Auster at the end of the film.
Her appearance in the film is a bit forced, but in the end you embrace her character just because she brings a little twist and fun to the film (by her singing)

here is a trailer:
