a fresh surprise!

Rating: 9/10 (11 September 2005)

come on, a movie without flaws just doesn't exist, and this one has some minor ones too, BUT!!! beyond all the thousand words, its a reminder of the true delicacy of love, and of the dream of the belief in romantic love. Quite an undertaking these days, where we all are so spoiled by having seen everything already...
Another praise for the excellent choice of music, which sometimes is gently layered of e.g. piano-soundtrack, and someone humming or playing a different tune on the piano. I feel, its not overused as so often, nor replaces or blows up anything, but illustrates the inner landscapes with just another array of colours, matching those of the photography.
Its fun, sexy in understated and unexpected ways, humorous, and well paced, "to breathe the sunrise is to truly open your heart".
A lovely, fresh, entertaining surprise of movie-fruit, that leaves you with a smile on your face, once the tears of joy you've shared with Donald Sutherland have subsided. ;-) Anja
