L'amour par accident

What a lovely movie!!!!!!!!! I can't understand why this film has not been shown before and no one even bothered to list the credits more fully for this film. The young actress that played the little girl was awesome -- totally believable. In the beginning there was quite a bit of overacting I thought, and you have to live through a lot of anger in the first half of the film, but things develop in a very realistic way -- and the film even has something not too many films have: an inspiring lesson and ending.

I'm really glad I watched this film. I wonder why although it was released in 1999 it has apparently not been shown much of anywhere until 6 years later. Hmmm...

I didn't care much for some of the lead actors in the film at the beginning, but they definitely grew on me -- as did the film. It's a film that has really beautiful transitions and meaning. Wonderful script.

So you're on the runway ready for take-off. Woah the engines kick in and the movie lurches forward, first minute we are into the air. The story starts building altitude.

The movie is inclining at near 45 degrees here. Twenty minutes in and a whole load of story has happened, this can't be. Your gripping your seat sure the movie will stall. Do they realize the better you make the start the further you have to fall when you stall.

Maybe if you have the finance or a big enough engine we can keep this up. Enter Kristina Malota... this little girl makes the movie for me. She adapts the character through the movie brilliantly. Either the director nursed a great performance or this girl has natural talent.

The story is good, the subplots are supporting but not intrusive, the balance of the story is good, not letting any of the story lag and break the flow. This really is a bizarrely good movie.

Or at least I thought so. I have watched a lot of these afternoon cheap romantic/drama movies and this is the only one where I did not look at the clock to find out how long until the interesting conclusion happens.

It's a quick on the way in and fast on the way out. It does not have clever twists or turns it's just good story telling.

Oh yes, and we plateau'd at a high altitude, then coasted in for a solid landing.

I'm watching the movie now, and it's pretty good. I don't know why they said it's due in 2000, cause I'm watching this now. If you like romance movies, please see this movie!!! This is a great movie! RomaDowney's best!
