Excellent casting

Rating: 9/10 (19 January 2006)

I reluctantly went to see this movie and by the time it was over I was pleased I didn't wait for it to come out on DVD. Watching Jonathan Rhys Meyers's face on the big screen was an engrossing experience. I don't really think he's all that good looking yet he has an earthiness to his features that I found appealing. Scarlett is beautiful, curvy, sexy and innocent all in one package. She was very very good. The rest of the cast was really perfect, they all complemented each other so very well, I found that to be the one element that really gave this movie credibility. The casting was perfect. I would encourage you to go see this one in the theater.
