Full of drama and comedy, yet some tragic sequences might lead to tears.

If you are looking for a heavy-dramatic comedy film, then it might be one of the good choices you would make. But as mentioned, the film contains some tragic and abrupt scenes that might not meet up to your first impression of this film. But I can assure you that one would not regret watching this film.
Many things I could point out but the facial expressions of each actor during some scenes and the ratio of frames are what I found most appraising. The thing about a film achieving its measurement of being called a "cinema", is the sequence of every consequential advancement to be very neat and steady. I saw that clearly in this movie. To be more precise, the story grows as time goes on. Not a single scene that does not connect to the story. But yes, it had some plotholes in the last quarter of the film, which is not very concerning as it is a drama and the audience thrives for it to be like that. In the end, you would love it if you are a true dramaholic.
A classic, but yet one of the best I have seen so far. Give it a try and you will like it.
