* The backdrop of vineyards in Tuscany.* Sunflowers & purple grapes.
* A dilapidated villa called 'Bramasole' with peeling paint.
* Single ornate tap in the middle of the house with no water.
* Of new beginnings in a land unknown.
* Blossoming of friendships.
* Giant wrought Iron bed with Mother Mary's image.
* Italian men on Piaggio scooters.
* Huge kitchen with a black-board for the menu(I love!)
* Olive picking in the olive grove.
* Drinking loads of red wine.
* Lines like ..."It's market day in Cortona, the piazza is an on-going party and everyone is invited".
Could it get any better than this...:-)

Maybe we could write a new
scene for the film where the
Italian man on the Piaggio
scooter could write the
menu for dinner on the chalkboard
while we pick olives ...
I haven't seen this film -
but I shall:)

I absolutely adore this film. I thought about it's message for a long while after...you do get what you wish for. You need only eyes to see it, eyes of gratitude.

I love both of those movies. Everything just seems so serene & complete in the south of France.

I haven't seen the movie but I have read the book severl times and truly enjoy it.
I've watched that close to about 30 times already...I get color inspiration from the film!..Luv it!
I like that they go to the Amalfi Coast in this movie. Thought the best Amalfi Coast scenery is probably "A Good Woman" with Helen Hunt and Scarlett Johannsen--or "The Talented Mr. Ripley", but that is a pretty dark film.
Great film, but bring Tuscany closer and visit my website. I've been living here for 10 years!
