Everything Is Illuminated

Elijah Wood was surprising in his portrayal of the main charecter, who is a bit of a "nebish" or dweeb, and a collector of multitudenous often unthinkable items. His search of his family's past which takes him to the Ukraine, and the people he meets are
funny, amusing and often very moving. It's got a shocking thread to it,
but not without humor. I also liked the surprise ending. The music was great!

Funny, insightful, emotionally a rolling coaster and a must see.
Anita in Albuquerque Nm ....also a collector

One of the best soundtracks to any film I've seen recently. Fun, upbeat, and not overpowering in it's slavicness.

I bought this cd for my 31 yo daughter after we watched the movie and loved the music. She plays it often and we were both thrilled to find that every song is great. That doesn't happen often with cds. I would recommend it to anyone who loves all types of music. Thank you.

Awesome movie. Laughed, cried, all-the-above. My wife did a 20 page report on the movie for school, so we can pretty much recite the best parts of the dialogue.
