Movie Reviews of A Month by the Lake

Movie Review: The Best 92 Minutes You'll spend in a Long Time
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm baffled by some of the negative reviews. It escapes me how anyone can not be enthralled with this splendid production. The story, the acting, the setting are first rate. Of course if you've not reached or passed middle age, one can understand how viewers may be put off by the pace of the movie and the oblique dialogue that says more by its understatement and passivity. For capturing the tension that exists between two unattached and seemingly different personalities who are confronting aging and loneliness, Fox and Redgrave give hallmark performances.Thurman also adds much to triangular relationship that addresses the folly of a young coquette enticing then ridiculing an older man. This is a classic that can be enjoyed over and over. There is something to be gleaned from each of its perfect ninety-two minutes running time. This sleeper is a keeper.

Movie Review: Perfect Entertainment
Summary: 5 Stars

Vanessa Redgrave is brilliant and absolutely gorgeous in this
fine film about spending a month in Italy. Uma Thurman comes
into the picture as a nanny for a couple of kids and she and
Vanessa vie for the attention of Edward Fox. I am basing this
review on the laserdisc which enchanced the movie considerably
and I imagine the dvd will be even better. One of those movies
that gets more enjoyable every time you watch it. And of course
I want to go back to Italy every time I see it. A perfect
companion piece to ENCHANTED APRIL (when will that be on DVD?)

Movie Review: One of my favorite films
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm a bit surprised to see the somewhat tepid 4-star reviews of this great film, one of my all-time favorite movies (others being Godfather I&II, Dr. Strangelove, Notting Hill, The Player, Pulp Fiction).

The acting, the plot, the direction, and the setting is marvelous. I don't even particularly like Lake Como (it's easily my least favorite destination in Italy) but I love this film!

If nothing else, the movie should be remembered for the classic line "but Como is so BORING!"

Movie Review: My all time favorite movie
Summary: 5 Stars

This one of my favorite movies. I could watch it over and over just to see the scenery. I love how hospitable the the hotel is, you wish you could stay there too.
Oh yeah its not real!

Movie Review: Lake Como is beautiful.
Summary: 5 Stars

Romance, beautiful scenery, an interesting story, and a happy ending - my kind of movie. I bought this copy for a friend who has been to Lake Como and is in love with all of Italy.
