Keanu Reeves is completely wooden in this romantic misfire by Alfonso Arau (
Like Water for Chocolate). Reeves plays a World War II vet who hits the road as a traveling salesman and agrees to help a desperate, pregnant woman (Aitana Sanchez-Gijon)--who is afraid to let her father (Giancarlo Giannini) see her condition--by pretending to be her husband. Most of the story takes place in the old man's vineyard, and Arau makes a life of swollen fruit, grape-stomping, sunlight, and tan flesh that looks amazingly erotic. But there are plenty of sillier distractions, such as the sight of farm hands chasing insects with flapping gossamer wings attached to their arms. Reeves is terribly self-conscious, while stalwart Anthony Quinn is memorable as the damsel's benevolent grandfather.

| My wife and I watched this moview several years ago and enjoyed it a second time even though the acting is a little slow. But we both remember the end of WWII and all the soldiers returning home to find what they left behind had changed including wives and sweethearts. Some of the men had been gone for 5 years and during that time kids had been born and lives changed forever. It's too bad that so many people today don't pay the respect to these gallant men that they deserve. |

| I like romantic comedies when they are well-done, and this is one of the best. It has an engaging storyline, beautiful locales and interesting characters. There is nothing in the storyline that is outlandish or unbelievable and there are no silly moments that you wish had been edited out. This is one of my favorite films and I can watch it over and over. |

| This is an entertaining, "warm, fuzzy" romantic story set in the late 1940's. It's simplistic and the characters are predictably developed. There is not much depth, but I doubt that that was the intent of the screenwriters or the director. I could see a far more challenging movie in this story line and a wonderful cast of more authentic and gritty actors. It is a good G rated movie. |

| I loved this movie. Love Keanu Reeves. This is an amazing love story, one that will stick with you for a long time. One that you'll pull out every so often to watch again, and again. |

This is a beautiful and poignant film. It is a film about the unexpected love formed by two people of deferent origins, which interen causes havoc among the girl's family. A family stepped in tradition and pride, but through there love and there families love for there land and the tragedies that befall them due to the father's disdain over his daughter's love for this outsider, a union is formed and the outsider is finely excepted as and loved as there own.
