Songs of the Open Road Audience Reviews

Micransix Crappy film
ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
