Chick in Italy November 12, 2009 Emilie Allow me to be the first to give this movie one star and say it stinks. It's been out a while and I'd avoided seeing it.
I knew the movie had little to do with the book of the same name, which would have been fine but I could tell that it wasn't just the facts they'd changed for the movie but the whole feel. The book didn't turn Italy and her men into stereotypes of hunky, swarthy men. But the movie managed to do that and more, turning every character we came across into a stereotype. Here's a bus filled with gays laughing and being inclusive and friendly, even to the straight girl. (Girl? Who's Diane Lane kidding? She's older by at least a decade than the men she bedded or planned to bed. But I digress.) Here's a lesbian couple, blissful in their coming parenthood. Here's the pregnant friend now abandoned by aforementioned gay lover who, in what looks like her 10th month of pregnancy, jumps on a plane to show up unannounced at her buddy's Italian villa to have her baby. And live there, as far as we can tell. Here's the beautiful, eccentric actress from a by-gone day spewing out sexual advice while lunching with a group of nuns -- and dressed a bit like a padre? Why not! She's eccentric, don't you know. Missing was the nuts and bolts of how all this happens. How's Frances Mayes (Lane) supporting herself? Where's the money coming from? In the book, Mayes and her lover spent summer's in Italy working the house and land back to life, then running back to SF to teach so they could make more money to do the whole thing again next summer vacation. And the book has a final scene that left me gasping with surprise and delight which the movie was in no way going to recreate, not with Lane's Mayes sniffing out yet another lover in the movie's last scene. Was that all the movie could aspire to, that Diane Lane find another lover? Talk about shallow.
I'm not so rigid to believe that a movie based on even a favorite book must be loyal to that book. But with any changes, you'd expect the movie to be good in its own way. I'm not sure why this movie bothered calling attention to its connection to Mayes' book. Why not just call it "Chick finds sex in Italy" and leave it at that?
Wonderful July 18, 2009 John J. Carney III 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love watching this movie over and over and realized I really enjoyed the sound track just as much. Now I keep replaying this CD too! The music is enchanting and soothing. It is great for morning coffee and for long drives and days spent indoors. It is mostly instrumentals and quite lovely.
Under a Tuscan Sun November 16, 2008 M. Roe I was trasnfixed by some of the music in this movie. I was happily surprised to see this soundtrack was available. I play this often at home. It is restful music. Highly recommended for those of you who loved the music from this movie as I did.
what's that song???? November 12, 2008 Rayna C. Eichler (usa) i've been looking for the song that's playing when diane lane goes to the womans house and she's getting her portrait painted, there's this almost jazz sounding song, and i cant find it. please help!!!
Sounds of Italy June 1, 2008 Darcy Deakin (Ambridge, PA United States) I was in Italy for two glorious weeks in 2007. This CD takes me right back to relive the sites, sounds and memories.
