Product: Under the Tuscan Sun (2003)
Rating: 3.0
Disappointed
After reading Frances Mayes two wonderful books, UNDER THE TUSCAN SUN and BELLA TUSCANY, I was very disappointed and felt let down by the film. I found the real Ms. Mayes and her significant other/husband Ed and their real life in Italy much more appealing than the un-real Ms. Mayes (Dianne Lane) and her very un-real life in Italy. The film is eye-candy due to settings and cinematography but if one expects to get the "real story" or if the story as presented in Ms. Mayes books is important, forget it.
