Its fantastic how the grunge scene started out in a almost musically lost city, Seattle, at least for the music enthusiasts, and ended becoming one of the most influential music scenes in the world, in the 90's, gathering comparisons to the London scene in the 60's, or the New York scene in the 70's. As for me, being a really big fan of Nirvana and Pearl Jam, I really had the need to watch this documentary, since it brings an in-depth view on grunge origins and background, aswell as the consequences of its separation from the underground scene.

the last Mastroianni's appearance in a film before his death, and what an honnour it should have been for Manoel de Oliveira, and even the other way around. two masters of the cinema, working together, for the first and last time.
Oliveira has a very reflective style in directing his films for what i've noticed. they're very slow paced, the lines are indirect and somehow poetic, and sometimes the characters speak to themselves and even for the camera. This Voyage isn't a masterpiece, its more like a life thought.
