A fun romp to escape reality with
Diane Lane is so beautiful! She just lights up the screen with her beauty. She is luminous like few actresses are today.She is gorgeous in that white dress with the black midsection.She really acts up a storm in this one!As for the Italian lover guy, it shouldn't have been Raoul Bova. There was a guy sitting behind and and to the left (Frances' right) of Frances in the church during the wedding scene at movie's end. He was SO MUCH better looking than Signor Bova. That guy should have been Marcello.The movie is an unrealistic fantasy for those who want to escape reality for two hours. It's not a great movie, but very enjoyable nonetheless. I especially liked the tribute to the fountain scene in "La dolce vita". So surreal. It brought a smile to my face.As for the fascist comment that the Contessa uttered at the German couple, it was clearly included in the film for humor. People forget that fascists lived not only in Italy, but also in Germany. The Nazis were fascists.Enjoy!
