Romance movie worth watching!

[peacetraveler22]

Sorry, I'm too lazy to write travel posts recently, and have been watching a lot of films. Normally, I don't like the mindless, formulaic romance movies put out by Hollywood, where everything is predictable with a happy ending and passionate kiss in the final scene. I've been drawn to a lot of British films lately, and this one is absolutely the best - "Far From the Madding Crowd." I highly recommend, although the accents are quite thick and it may be difficult to understand. Beautiful cinematography, great acting and a strong, interesting heroine! She's just amazingly beautiful, and I was completely fixated on her the entire film. Lots of romantic twists, action, class struggles - all classic film themes woven together in a captivating tale. If you watch it, I don't think you will be surprised that I like it so much if you're a regular reader of my blog. Happy viewing! :)

Who has film recommendations for me? Any language, any country! Go...! :)

Hope, you'll like it :)
Oh, and have you seen "Love Actually" and "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"? These are my favorites, as well.
As for the Russian films, I guess, "The Barber of Siberia" is worthy seeing.

Yes, I've seen them both. I wrote above in another comment that Love Actually is one of my favorites. :) It's a holiday tradition in my family to watch it around Christmas time.

Great tradition :)) I think, I'll watch "About Time" once again next weekend, so it can become our family tradition!
