Wao, da escalofríos!... que belleza la luz de la película... Fui alumno de Levy Rossell, y como se imaginarán, Reverón jugó un papel importante en mi formación. Ahora vivo en Alemania, espero poder ver la película pronto... El mundo aún tiene mucho por descubrir , disfrutar y conocer de nuestro grande Reverón!.. Bravo por esta película!

Hurra !! para Diego, gran director de cine en Venezuela. Excelente !! aporte a la cultura y gran registro de uno de los hombres grandes del país... Felicitaciones a toda la gente que intervino en ella y a nosotros por tener la oportunidad de ver al maestro Armando Reverón.

Cuando quieres ver una película anciosamente sólo de haber visto su trailer, es porque éste está bien hecho.
