FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
AlyssaBeltran This film is truly my favorite. When I feel lost or disconnected with my aspirational self, this film is the one I turn to. It's filled with many European qualities - qualities of thoughtfulness, empathy and complex simplicity as well as the aesthetic architecture. I highly recommend this for the light-hearted, happy-mongering individual.
stuart-12777 I have always been annoyed at missing this in the cinema but have now watched it many times on dvd. This is one of those sorely under rated classic films which is almost perfect with it's warmth and beauty. It touches the heart and soul in so many ways, yet is also witty and gritty in comparing the London trader world and the laid back Provence life. Whenever you feel life getting on top of you put this dvd on, you will not be disappointed. A truly wonderful film with a eclectic soundtrack.
david atkinson I know its an old film but I've watched this numerous times and love it. personally think this film is a total change of direction for ridley scott and crowe plays a very good part. I have learned to enjoy russel crowes movies and find that his talent as an actor is getting better.. just like the wine in this movie. the whole film is very good and the throwbacks to when max skinner was younger adds even more character to the film. all the actors play a very good part and they make this film very enjoyable. as for Marion Cotillard.. wow.. she is absolutely stunning and its no wonder she is even more popular some years down the line.. I also think the relationship between max and henry is probably more comparable to a lot of families these days. as to the location of the movie.. who wouldn't want to spend a fantastic summer in that location. would I recommend this movie. oh yes. without a doubt.
ptamilne Ask me my favorite movie and I will not hesitate with this one. I keep coming back to this movie every time I need a little visual inspiration. It's easy to get into the chaos of day to day work and this film helps to remind me to take it a little easier in life. The older I get the more this movie makes sense. Take that time, enjoy the simple things, simple pleasures and surround yourself with the people and events you care about the most. The story line has a point, the setting is beautiful and the acting is an all-star cast that delivers. The comedy is smart and does not insult ones intelligence. This is one of the rare films out there that keeps things comfortable, positive and classy. I appreciate the film and it's creativity that continues to inspire and charm. After all, one can day dream about owning a French vineyard someday.
