Un incontro inaspettato

If I watch a romantic film, I want to feel something. This was a fairly pretty formulaic second chance type romance (widow who loved husband moving on with life) He and she start off finding each other annoying and irritating and it goes from there. Even at the high point (as always in romance - there is that darkest hour is just before dawn moment) I just didn't care. Zero feels. Zero romance. Decent acting from Mr. Ferguson but Ms. Gifford - well, an actress she is not. As mentioned by others - fabulous scenery.

Not a great plot. Not a great script. Not great acting. But the scenery is incredible. Treat it as a travelogue for Scotland.

Then Came You is a great movie for fans of Craig Ferguson who also like simple, heartwarming stories. It's got some great lines, and the two stars have good chemistry together with their sparring, distinct personalities. It's not a fancy/glossy/polished movie, and it has a few awkward moments, but in it's heart it is about two older widowed people who meet, really enjoy spending time together, and learn from each other about what things are really important for their lives. There are a lot of good moments in this film. And of course, there is Scottish countryside, for Scotland lovers. It's a quite, quirky romance and well worth watching.

What a great location for this movie it added to the obvious fun they were having. I enjoyed watching Then Came You. The comfort they showed acting in these rolls that Gifford wrote was really well played.

Lots of little surprises, fun things, serious things. We really enjoyed it! Perhaps it more appreciated by older, every-day kind of people. But it does have some wisdom, some love, some strength. And the creativity in it is a real heart-warmer!
