Molto Bella

It's a rare occasion when a Romantic film comes along and the couple isn't hopping in bed in the first 10 to 15 minutes. This film is rich with scenery, plot, and overall warmth. Chance Encounter" is a genuine and moving film that will stay with you long after the credits roll. It is a testament to the power of cinema to touch our hearts and challenge our minds. I highly recommend this film to anyone looking for a thought-provoking and emotionally resonant cinematic experience. The story is crafted such that it takes you on a brief journey in yet a very a subtle and gentle manner. The acting, music, storyline, and scenery make this movie a gem.

I watched this movie on a flight and the story was so sweet, it made me feel all warm and fuzzy. Definitely heartwarming. The lead actors are so endearing and carry this sweet tale beautifully. The characters they play are as intriguing as the amazing setting, the writing just as wonderful as the pasta looks, and you can tell the director put his heart and soul into this cinematic piece of art.

I am craving a big dish of pasta -- with a side of an intriguing/inspiring conversation with a fellow artist -- right now, as I reflect on this beautiful film. If you're looking to have a nice, relaxing, romantic movie night, I recommend this "A Chance Encounter"; I also recommend cooking some pasta, snuggling with your loved one, and being ready for your heart to flutter with joy from start to finish.

When someone writes a song, poem or a story about you that's when you know you've met someone really really special. It's a special movie for me cause i found some answers i've been looking for and to all the people who loved the mystery of finding someone who is just meant for you and you alone. Writers knew exactly what they were doing with story with not being predictable and cliche about romance. To simply say movie is about poetry and music, and if that ain't romance itself I don't know what is. Life's questions must be answered with life itself. I wish to revisit this movie in a year or two and see how it's been aged so here's "To now, the memory of tomorrow".

PS : Not many people will read this review but if you do, go find some more movies like this. Here's some of mine favourite ones - Frank, Submarine, Shithouse.

I was a little surprised by this film. I got to see it early and fell in love with the characters, the music and the scenery. This is a very low budget movie, but it was done very artistically. The main character. Hal runs into josie a one hit musician looking to find the inspiration for a second hit song. Hal is a poet that wants to find his voice on the page. The two decide to explore the Italian town of. Taormina together and they find a spark that helps their careers. I had never heard of either actors. The one great thing about the movie was introducing me to. Andrea von Kampen. Her music is great so check out her videos. The other thing about this movie is the scenery and if you were an artist you could paint a hundred great paintings from the scenery. The movie felt very honest and moved easily down the Italian streets. Try it I think you will be surprised.

Andrea von Kampen's songs & performances create the soul of this film, and she and her co-lead Paul Peterson deftly let the story breathe and blossom. Ironically, my initial reaction was how it was unfortunate that the lead actress's singing had to be dubbed in. It took a minute to realize von Kampen is the real deal - singing, playing, and writing her own stuff - not at all a stand-in.

Gorgeous Italian backdrops frame the actors and color their conversations as they playfully tease their way towards a relationship. The poetry of the screenplay is lovely. I'd prefer an engaging little story like this one, bathed in music, scenery, and smart dialogue, to 1000 CGI blockbusters.
