My copy of this arrived today from Amazon and I truly loved it. It was heart-wrenching in it's realness. Helen being the strong woman she is naturally tends to play strong women but it was a nice change to see her play a vulnernable, somewhat broken character.
Yes, nicely shot, and I love Helen Mirren but this was a total mistake, especially French jeune-premier Olivier Martinez cast as the Italian gigolo Paolo...wrong! She is very brave to bare all, he barely shows half his ass! The 1961 film, with a magnificent Vivien Leigh as Karen Stone and a young, very beautiful Warren Beatty as Paolo, is really incomparable. Why do American idiots try and remake classic films which shouldn't be touched?
i watched this on tv and i was drawn to it immediately upon seeing helen mirren in it and 3 minutes into it i was hooked! everything was perfect in this movie..helen mirren is a godsend!
Where can I buy this film? or Where can I download ... ? I don´t find this film, for example in emule, in others webs ... Thank you ... I would like to see it ...
Merybel, you can buy this film all over the web but I recommend checking out CD Universe or Amazon. Links cannot be posted here so I will send them to you by private message. Love from Rollergirl
i love this movie.... :D i've juz watched this movie on hallmark channel... last time hallmark used 2 show this more often,now ey rarely show it and luckily i managed to catch it... tnx 4 posting this movie trailer! :D
This movie is so great. One more time to see Helen completely naked^^ And she looks great. Very touching performance from Helen and, of course, from the amazing Anne Bancroft.
The movie was not that bad, however its nothing in comparison to the book. I know it always isnt, but this story in particular sits much more contently within pages.
I've been meaning to read the book, Sandrix. I'd like to see how the story ends in print. And I'd love to a little more about Paulo's background and thoughts not portrayed in the film. Thank you for commenting. Love from Rollergirl

This is a great remake, under promoted and underrated.

I thought the original with Vvien was good but this one really grabs you and is that much more 'real'.

How is it possible not loving Olivier Martinez? Watch him at 0:38, simply gorgeous and refined. Great man...

The writer has left the ending up to your imagination. We have no idea what he has done to her. Perhaps he loved her.
