Product description

Italian-set drama starring Maggie Smith as Emily Delahunty, an author of romantic novels living in Umbria. One day, while on a shopping excursion to Milan, she becomes one of a number of victims of a terrorist bomb attack on the train. Emily recovers quickly from the event, but others in her carriage are more deeply affected: a young German journalist (Benno Fürmann), a British general (Ronnie Barker) and particularly a young American girl orphaned in the blast (Emmy Clarke). Emily invites her fellow survivors to join her at her beautiful country home, where her free and unconventional lifestyle helps them all to overcome their ordeal. Timothy Spall and Chris Cooper co-star.

A decadent chocolate box movie

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 May 2017

Verified Purchase

Before I saw the movie last summer. As first impressions, I didn't know
what to expect and the title of the film seemed boring, but I loved
Dame Maggie Smith so I gave the movie a chance.

Based on a novel by William Trevor is about a sophisticated,
vulnerable, eccentric Authoress called Mrs Emily Delahunty (Maggie
Smith) who is on her way to Milan on a monthly shopping trip with
acquaintances on a carriage 219, they were about to look forward to the
day in their own way until a bomb exploded on the carriage. Delahunty,
Werner the young German (Benno Fürmann), General (Ronnie Barker),
traumatised although unscathed but gone mute from the horror is 8 year
old American Girl Aimee (Emmy Clarke) who are survivors. Out of
Kindness and loneliness- Delahunty invite them to stay long term to her
healing pensione and recuperate in piece of paradise, the scenic vistas of
the Italian country living. Thomas Riversmith (Chris Cooper) enters as
Aimee's nitpicking Scientific Uncle with his share of brokenness and
he too is slowly going through a transition like the others. As soon as
healing process begins with everyone and coming to terms of their loses
and gains through friendship, magic happens as well as their own
purposes and Destinies.

The atmosphere of this movie reminds me of Tea with Mussolini, but with
a simplified plot whereas Tea with Mussolini has more characters and
more serious Drama, My House in Umbria is light-hearted but you feel
just as sympathetic for the characters.

The versatile Maggie Smith is such a legend and won a deserved award as
the dry humoured, elegant, Earth Angel that has a spiritual gift who
comes to terms with a troubled secret past in search of her inner
fulfilment as her form of Happiness, Inspector Girotti (Giancarlo
Giannini from "a walk in the clouds") is brilliant, Quinty (Timothy Spall) is wonderful as her
assistant (his Irish accent is flawless). Chris Cooper is interesting
as the attractive but blunt and straight laced Professor who is
secretly passionate but not engaging to social relationships besides
his work. Fürmann had the look of dread and worry and he put on a smart
performance. The cast is wonderful, the setting, the pacing of the
movie is perfect.

What an enchanting movie with magic like Chocolat, it has warmth and
charm without the Hocus Pocus. Goes to show that Humans as a living
spirit can make magic when they connect.

I own this movie on DVD now and can't stop watching it. Well done.

Gentle Mystery with Italian Sunshine, Maggie Smith and a Scene Stealing Timothy Spall

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 November 2017

Verified Purchase

Mrs Delahunty (Maggie Smith) is a successful romance novelist living in a beautiful villa in Umbria. When she embarks on a train journey, her train is blown up by terrorists. While the police are still conducting their investigation, Mrs Delahunty invites a few of her fellow travellers and survivors of the explosion to her home, among them the helpful young German man Werner and the orphaned child Aimee. A bond forms between these people with very different backgrounds as they recover, both physically and mentally, from their ordeal. The idyll at the villa is occasionally disturbed by the visits of police inspector Girotti (Giancarlo Giannini), trying to find out more about the attack on the train.

This is a gentle mystery rather than an edge of your seat thriller. The main impression it leaves is not that of a heinous crime, but of an idyllic retreat in the Italian sunshine. The cast is rather more exciting than the story, with Maggie Smith having the most screen time and delivering a thoroughly enjoyable performance as the ageing and rather lonely authoress. Giancarlo Giannini, who will be familiar to many viewers from his recurring role in recent Bond films, is well cast as the detective. The rest of the cast, including the child actress, are delivering solid performances, but the standout, for me at any rate, is the scene stealing Timothy Spall as Mrs Delahunty's helper/gardener/maintenance man Quinty. Nice entertainment for a rainy afternoon and a must for fans of Maggie Smith and Mr Spall.

Essential viewing for Maggie Smith fans

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 December 2021

Verified Purchase

A wonderful beautiful film. Maggie Smith is superb at a time of her life when she was transitioning from younger roles to powerful, often matriarchal older women roles. In this film she plays a complicated person with a disturbing past who nevertheless manages to find happiness and fulfilment - at least for a while. It is hard to imagine anyone else being able to capture what the role demands. The rest of the cast is terrific, and the scenery is rapturous. It has made me want to visit Umbria, and also to read the work of the Irish author, one of whose stories was used as the basis of the screenplay.

Easy viewing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 November 2007

I'm not usually fond of films I regard as claustrophobic - limited number of characters cooped up together in an unchanging location - however, this started on TV, I was too lazy to change channels and as the story moved along I got hooked and watched it right through. To my surprise I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a gentle, unobtrusive film which was relaxing to watch after a hectic day's work. The only thing that put my teeth on edge was Timothy Spall's would-be Irish accent. The reviewer who thought it was OK should have the old ears seen to! As an Irish person I sometimes wish that they wouldn't bother with Irish characters in films at all if non-Irish actors are playing them. It can be too cringe-making. However, that didn't stop me from buying the DVD.

Feel the warmth of this wonderful film!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 July 2009

Verified Purchase

This is a wonderful film. Set in the Tuscany area of Italy and beautifully filmed. There is great acting by all involved and laden with poignant moments throughout.
A group of disparate people find themselves sharing a compartment on a train trip. Suddenly an explosion occurs and the occupants become victims of the outrage and now find themselves sharing their injuries and sorrows. As part of their help towards recovery the survivors are invited to stay at her house by Emily (Maggie Smith) a `Mills and Boon' type writer of romantic fiction, and a fellow survivor. That is the basic synopsis and to say more may well impugn upon your enjoyment of the movie. Suffice to say that there is mystery, suspense and surprises throughout. The locality where the filming takes place can also be said to be a star of the film! Settle down with a glass of wine (Italian) and enjoy this treat of a movie. Oh! and have a hankie to hand!
