How can anyone say this guy is wooden?!
If I'm going to be sexist, and sterotype every guy under the moon, then no guy can show emotion. (Boy, I'm gonna pay for that!) So I don't see why so many people label Keanu Reeves as being "wooden". OK, so he's not well-known for the romantic movies (unlike a Mr Grant), he's normally disabling bombs, or trying to figure out whether he is The One.
This film is definitely one of his best. Everyone else has gone through the storyline on this, so I won't! I will say Keanu looks great in a uniform, and does what Bruce Willis for little white vests - yummy!
The scenery is absolutely breath-taking in this movie, as is Keanu - OK, sorry, I had to slip that in!!!
A pre-Will & Grace Debra Messing stars in this, as Paul's wife, Betty. During a friendly game of hockey with his friends during spare time, Keanu's lip was split, requiring six stitches (which must have been a pain for the director), and a kiss from Debra Messing in a scene, he had to tell her not to hurt him!
Aitana Sánchez-Gijón plays the beautiful Victoria Aragón, although there's several unnoticed continuity problems, as her hair seems to go from wavy to straight every couple of scenes! This is her first mainstream, and she hasn't appeared in a lot of other mainstream movies. Anthony Quinn also stars, as the interfering grandfather, Don Pedro Aragón, who almost seems to know that the couple aren't really married, which takes a while for the rest of the family to figure out.
This is a terrific romance, a lot better than anything that features the ubiquitous Mr Grant. And definitely a must, if you had a bit of a lonely Valentine's Day. Who says romance is dead?
Quite amusing
I'm surprised to see that I am the first person to review this movie. Not that it is amazing, but I like the story that it tells. Also, this was the first American movie for Spanish actress Aitana Sánchez-Gijón. Maybe that's why it is really well-known in Spain. Keanu Reeves is not bad either.
There are some really beautiful scenes, all of them taking place in the vineyard fields. Don't miss the way this family have to prevent the vineyards from rotting during a stiflingly hot night.
