Swept From The Sea (1997) Reviews

If you like emotional love stories that stay with you long after the movie is ended, you will love this one. Beautiful scenery, classic story of love's euphoria and pain, and excellent acting by Rachel Weisz, Vincent Perez and Ian McKellen make this one of my absolute favorite love-story movies. Rates right up there with A Summer Story in my list of favorites.

This is a wonderful movie. It's about a man and a women from two different parts of the globe and their struggle to to be together admist obstacles. It's a tale of love and tragedy all too common in a world of that time, indifferent to tolerance, acceptance and ridden with pride and unforgiveness towards those that are not as fortunate and towards those who are just purely different from the norm. Emotions run deep in this movie; you will feel the rush of love and beauty, and the cut of rejection and hate by strangers and even those you love. Courage triumphs, showing that all is possible and perhaps everything can be overcome with patience and hard work. The acting is superb. The scenic views of the beautiful ocean and the grasslands are breathtaking. It was a nice movie, worth watching. It could have ended better though.
