Editorial Review:
A wealthy young socialite and a young Jesuit priest fall in love and run away together to a small Argentinean village where they conceal their true identities. When they are discovered a terrible tragedy ensues. One of the most controversial stories in Argentina also proves to be one of its more embarrassing episodes. Authorities have suppressed the telling of this story since the first attempt to put the story on screen in 1912. This version directed by Maria Luisa Bemberg (I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT) earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Foreign Film.Run Time: 105 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: FOREIGN/LATIN Rating: R UPC: 736899041823 Manufacturer No: DV67874

Rating: - This movie is amazing!
This movie is absolutely amazing! I remember seeing it many years ago, when I was a little girl, and I remember my parents watching it on TV, and there were certain scenes that I never forgot. I finally managed to find the movie and I couldn't wait to buy it. It's an interesting forbidden love story, and it's interesting to see the barriers, the social classes, and how religious fanatics, and the laws can dictate people's lives. Watch it.

Rating: - Timeless Classic!!!!!!
What a beautiful piece of work. I am a 24 year old man, and they say men (or kids as they are now) are not supposed to cry, but let me tell you something ladies and gentlemen, I was torn apart after watching this classic. 3 days later, I am still shaken. I love the fact that you hear actor's real voices and not their English substitutes, it gives you a much better feel; yes you'd have to read subtitles (not that bad, honestly). Camila is not a pampered blue blooded girl, though her father is the exact ... Read More
Rating:  - Very good movie
This film was good and was very interesting to view. The role of the clergy is very interesting to see as it develops in the movie.
