Additional InformationWhen 19-year-old Lucy Harmon (Liv Tyler) arrives in Tuscany, wondering about her mother (a recent suicide) and still nursing a crush on Niccolo, the local playboy she met on a visit four years earlier, everyone sits up and takes notice--especially director Bernardo Bertolucci, who trains his camera on the ingenue with understandable enthusiasm. The Graysons, who own the artists' colony and villa where Lucy's mother once wrote poetry, take the young girl in, and their guests enjoy the infusion of youth. Perhaps most deeply affected is Alex Parrish (Jeremy Irons), a terminally ill writer who finds Lucy charming and vital. Before such attentions, Lucy's interest in Niccolo quickly fades, replaced by an unexpected mystery regarding the identity of her father and a possible new love. And in a further attempt to understand her mother, Lucy writes light little poems as well. (Bertolucci has her words appear on the screen as she scribbles.) In fact, everything seems light in lush and lovely Tuscany, which provides a gorgeous setting for the gifted ensemble to play out their intrigues.

    Liv Tyler played a different role to what I have seen her in previously, and Rachel Weisz has a great figure.

  • Worst film ever

    They​ film was awful. I blame my wife who saw set in Tuscany and so had to have it. No plot or story line dialogue dreadful. Jeremy Irons could only have done it for the money for his kids school fees. Didn't even see much of Tuscany. Will be putting it up for sale so hope potential buyer doesn't read this. Excuse for showing bare breasts and adolescents fumbling.

  • Love this film!

    Lovely scenery of Italy. Like the soundtrack. Good cast of actors. Although the film is about Lucy (Liv Tyler) finding romance there is also the question of who her real father is..
