This lovely, 1991 adaptation of Elizabeth Von Arnim's novel has a superb cast and a tone so mellow you can feel your pulse get slower. Josie Lawrence and Miranda Richardson play a pair of unhappily married women who rent an Italian villa for a month, sharing the rent with a crusty Englishwoman (Joan Plowright) and a lonely aristocrat (Polly Walker). Sun, rest, sinking into the green grass for long naps--they all have a soulful effect on the quartet, and then on the men in their lives who make a surprise visit. Mike Newell (Into the West) directs with seeming effortlessness, and it is impossible not to be swayed by the promise of restoration for these burdened characters--or for anyone alive. Wonderful performances all around, including a particularly sensitive one by Alfred Molina and a very funny one by Jim Broadbent. --Tom Keogh

I had a friend who kept nagging me to watch this movie. I was assured that I would love it. Well, I started to watch it and the first couple of minutes seemed rather dull to me -- little did I know that this movie would turn out to be one of my alltime favorites.
I especially like such movies as "Tea With Mussolini", "Avalon" and "Room With a View". And, as much as I liked those, I like this one a hundred times more! Why? I'm not actually sure of the exact reason. I tend to think ... Read More

This is a great pick for people who need a pick-me-up or want to imagine a dreamy, sunlit paradise. No car chases, no torrid sex scenes. It's got romance, humor, and quiet introspection. I want to warn you that not a lot happens in the film. My favorite image is Miranda Richardson lying on the grassy hillside in Italy, dozing and trying to decide if she should invite her husband to the villa she and her friends have escaped to during London's rainy dreary spring. This movie is appropriate for grandmas ... Read More

I found this movie years and years ago at my local public library. It's adorable. Beautifully paced - and photographed wonderfully. 2 ladies who barely know each other agree to rent and share a castle in Italy for April - wanting to escape the dreary spring rains in London. They invite two other women (who they don't know) to help cover expenses. What happens is magical.
This is about love. Love between friends, love between husband and wife, new found love, old love. There are a ... Read More

This movie kept my interest and was very scenic, but I am at a bit of a loss to explain the point of it. When it got to the end, it had put me in a better mood and as were all the characters. I guess that must have been it then. In any case, I liked it and recommend it.

This film is like going away for a day by the lake, but without the hassle of getting a picnic ready. A gentle story about love restored or found. Lovely views. Charming characters. Very relaxing. Just a little quirky, but only enough to bring a smile to one's face.
