Three Thousand Years of Longing: weird and wonderful

by

CBC News published this video item, entitled “Three Thousand Years of Longing: weird and wonderful” – below is their description.

George Miller’s latest offering, starring Tilda Swinton and Idris Elba, delivers a grown-up fairy tale in which a scholar accidentally conjures up a genie who offers her three wishes. Miller’s filmmaking is weird and wonderful, but the movie’s true appeal lies in its sweetness.
