Lush, rapturous and haunting

Rating: Null/10 (20 December 2003)

What a lovely movie from Anthony Minghella, the director of The English Patient. He developed a wonderful screenplay and worked with the requirements of the big studio Miramax (to use big name stars) to bring together a nice film about the devastation caused by the Civil War. Hope that the audiences notice all of the strong character actor roles in this film, they were all very good.
