Set amongst the most beautiful scenery, this film -- part romance, part tragedy, and all mystery -- is full of surprises, right up to and including its remarkable ending. How can we know whom to trust? What happens to people who have no love in their lives? Of what importance is forgiveness? There is so much more to this story than first meets the eye. With a pace that is langorous, as befits the undulating Umbrian countryside, but never slow, Dame Maggie Smith and Chris Cooper, among others, give stellar performances. The result is a superb film.

Maggie Smith gives a great performance in Umbria. The themes of the human condition - ranging from foibles to brutality - are treated with compassion and gentleness. A beautiful film to watch.

This movie is what "How to Make an American Quilt," "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants," "Ladies in Lavender" and "Under the Tuscan Sun" tried so hard to be but failed. This movie has a true romantic quality although it is not technically a love story.
