I recently saw this movie on TV in Greece.( Dec 06) As I had never heard of it before it was a real surprise. Great costumes, sets and color . The story kept moving along and you had to pay attention. I felt at the end that I wanted more . What happened next ? Is there a sequel ? Was it a series ? The scenes in Venice were amazing in their recreation of the period. Most of these actors I have never heard of and I gather that it is a mainly European cast. The credits ran so fast ( on my TV) that I couldn't catch what nationality the co production was . Czecoslovakian ? The historical aspects were very interesting and there were echos of Shakespeare's 'The Merchant of Venice" in the way the Venictian's applied their trading laws and laws of contract. Very interesting. And yes beautifully filmed.
