A nearly film.

Rating: 5/10 (14 September 2009)

I found this film OK but I think there were pasrts that just did not work.
This is a story about two people who meet during the Amerfian Civil war. He goes off to fight, she stays and waits for him.
My first problem was i did not think the director developed the love story enough. It was love at first sight but not convincing enough for me. I kept asking myself, why has she fallen for this guy she has only just met? Once the film gets going it was quite watchable. There is a bit of gore with he battle scenes and the war is a constant part of the plot with shootings all through.
The acting is good although for my English taste I think Zelleweger does a a bit too much over acting.
All in all worth watching.
