O Sentido do Amor

I adore this movie. By nervously checking my watch repeatedly in fear that time would pass too quickly and the movie might be over it was obvious how much I wanted it to last longer.

As a lot of French movies it is a very gentle display of a delicate situation. There is some drama, there is sadness nevertheless there is this warm undertone in the background giving a feeling of hope.

Someone in favor of romantic movies, an audience who appreciates the not-overly dramatic progress of French films that some might mistake as slow, to those this movie will be a delight. It is a gem with lovable characters where even the "villains'" actions are understandable, where warmth and humanity reign before fast-beated action.

It is a good way to end a day. I strongly recommend having a pear pie with it. Enjoy!

Viginie Efira's husband died doing a dangerous sport. Now with two children and an in- debt pear farm she meets Benjamin Lavernhe who is trying to escape from a state official trying to analyze his danger to the state. He has hacked into some high level documents. When hit by Virginie's car, Benjamin goes home with her and discovers he loves her, her children, and the farm. He is good looking, honest, and the children find him very appealing. Benjamin does get analyzed and decides he wants to live with Virginie. His sense of wonder has captured the family. Since autism and all levels on the spectrum are everywhere, this story is completely relevant. Of course people on the spectrum will fall in love and finally feel it is where they belong. Sense of Wonder shows how an open heart and mind can inspire hope and changes.

Filled with the wonders of Nature, and great cinematography of the Rhone/Alpes region of France. Beautiful story, also, about the wonders of the human mind and of altruistic Love. Sooo refreshing, compared to typical Hollywood fare. . . .

Some film catch you from the first scene! Le goût des merveilles is that kind of film! It deals with a lot of subjects from social gathering, agriculture and love. I was relief and fresh when I came out from the theater! It's absolutely a delight for people who is looking for a feel good movie. Every artists performed very cleverly their role and they need o special standing ovation. In this magnum opus the director, the screen writer, cameraman and the editor have done a matured job. I must felicitated the main male and female lead. You'll know the reason when you'll come back after watching this beautiful drama!

Once again, hats off to the whole team!

Way to go...
