Format:DVD
This movie exceeded my expectations. Both actors are so young and innocent looking. Marvelous cast. I also have this on DVD. I watch this movie every week - sometimes more often - if I am in a down mood or don't feel well - this is always the movie I want to watch. It is such a touching love story - but unfortunately love cannot always conquere everything. So it is lovely, funny, happy and sad. So well done by all.

Better Colin Firth Movies Available
11 Jan 2011
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Compared to other Colin Firth movies, this movie was very flat. I love period movies, and comparing to the likes of Jane Austin, this one pales in comparison. I had higher hopes for this film so was disappointed when I finished watching it.
The character of Camille was not well formed. She gave a sub-par performance. Firth seemed stilted and robotic at times.
The story line was a good one, and the potential for it being much more fleshed out would have made it much more endearing. So, it left me feeling like I wasted 100 minutes of my day.
So, chalk it up to one not so hot purchase.
I'll loan it to my daughter, with whom I LOVE to watch movies like this, but with a forwarning not to expect too much.
I would recommend saving the $$$ and watching Pride and Prejudice again!

Made for TV Movie
2 Feb 2011
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I tried to find information on this movie prior to purchasing the DVD but didn't find much. This is a 'made for TV movie' which means the budget wasn't that great and it shows. I purchased it for the great cast but even they could not elevate the quality of the production.

Super Love story
5 Dec 2010
Format:DVD
Beautiful love storey with Greta Scacchi and Colin Firth. They work beautifully together and the film is a delight to watch. Its a simple story yet tragic...
Great to see an very under valued Greta Scacchi work as she is a class actress.
