Based
on the real life story of Frances Mayes Under The Tuscan Sun is a lovely
feel good movie, beautiful to look at, the Tuscan scenery is simply
gorgeous, in fact there's a nice contrast between the dour, gray facade
of San Francisco and the vibrantness of Tuscany. Full
of warmth, you really want Frances to find happiness after her divorce,
initially it looks like she may end up in the arms of friendly real
estate agent Vincent Riotta but is later swept off her feet by Bova's
charming Marcello. Lane
is great as Mayers but the real stars of the movie are the beautiful
Tuscan countryside and the gorgeous old house Frances finds to live
in. |
