Fino al prossimo incontro

I totally loved this movie and cannot rave about it enough. Full of wonderfully stong characters, especially the female ones. It would be easier to talk about if I had seen it more recently, but it has been a while. It is well worth reading the book too, like the movie you just melt into it... I wish I had the PAL version!!

Well, I thought this was quite good. As a rule, TV mini-series can be pretty hit-and-miss, but I was pleasantly surprised by this one.

A good pre-Friends performance from Courteney Cox, who proves that she can act and a brilliant cast on the whole. Isn't Barry Bostwick just dreamy??

Anyway, if you want to see one book adaptation, then see this one! Go on! See it!

Very Good!! Once you see it, you must love it! The Songs are tremendous!! The ones who love this TV very much cannot have its soundtrack - is a LOSS! During the time hear about these songs, the lives of three young women will appear in your mind! An Excellent TV I had never seen! :)

I watched this when I was quite small as an English channel showed this as a tele-series back in the late 80's or beginning of the 90's in Sri Lanka....

There's not many that I've watched that has been able to take a special person in my memory.... but this was one greaaaaaaat series that I looked forward to seeing every week when it was running in episodes...

To think that I remembered the name upto date and to think that I fell for Hugh Grant at a very young age, when other of my age hardly knew that such a character existed, is amazing... when I read through the cast, I even remembered that his role was "Bruno".

Whats even more surprising is my sudden remembrance of the series in 2004... so many years after watching it for the first time... and this is very reason I'm here seated in front of the comp taking time off a pretty busy schedule to give my thoughts on it....

I simply loved it... and thumbs up for the director of the series and the author (judith krantz) both : ). Pls make more of this kind... so that my daughter would be able to enjoy something similar : )

An amazing cast; perfect landscapes, sets and costumes. Set in Pre-WWI, the story begins with one wealthy man's troubled marriage, which leaves him a widower with a son who will become estranged to him thanks to interference from elitist grandparents (Michael York & Hugh Grant, two of my faves -- NO SPOILERS). During his travels following the war, York falls for a young woman from a good family (Lucy Gutteridge) who was inopportunely seduced and ultimately forced to become a type of show girl... who he marries, which leads to the birth of three children whose stories unfold with the Nazi occupation of WWII in the backdrop. The stars survive all forms of trauma, much of it caused by York's estranged son (Grant).

Supporting actors (including several of my faves as well, namely Charles Shaughnessy, Bruce Boxleitner, Barry Bostwick, and Vernon Dobtcheff) really help the leading ladies of the story (Lucy Gutteridge, Mia Sara, and Courteney Cox) pull through quite a lot from the start of the film through it's conclusion.

No Spoilers. Watch the movie.
