4.0 out of 5 stars hooked on tuscany, July 18 2004

By

Astrid "milonguita" (Tokyo, J Japan) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Under the Tuscan Sun (VHS Tape)

I have watched this movie twice so far, and will probably watch it more often. Tuscany is a countryside that got me hooked the first time I saw it appearing in front of my train window, and it is the same with the movie. So, I could empathize, seeing the same happening to "Frances" (Diane Lane) when she sees Tuscany and decides to buy a house and stay. Diane Lane in one of her best roles, her face very expressive, her acting excellent.
The only disappointment came when I read the book the movie was made after: in the original autobiographic story, Frances Mayes is not at all a divorcee struggling with recurring bouts of loneliness, but rather, a woman already happily attached again to a new steady boyfriend, with a fulfilled life, and full of energy for the work on their new house. The movie trailer says, the character were "changed for dramatic effect". Wonder who did not like the idea that a woman could be happy again so soon, and decided it should not be shown in the movie that way ? Anyway, both are definitely worth your while, and in the book you can even find the recipes for all that great Italian cooking too.

This review is from: Under the Tuscan Sun (DVD)

Product was in great shape. The movie is a total chick flick but a good one at that. Couldn't stop laughing and enjoying the scenery. Makes me want to go to Tuscany next summer.
