Okay, so this isn't your made-for-cinema movie but charming nonetheless. Unknown Canadian boy actor, Derek Senft, plays his part well as the stableboy who meets the great Johann Strauss II. A passable enough storyline with the added bonuses of Derek himself and Strauss's music.
My Movie Rating: 6 / 10
