    A Beautiful Classic Romance

    This is a beautifully wrought movie with incredible cinematography and acting. It transports you to another era, allows you to forget yourself for a while, and makes you believe in true romance again. It is poignantly done bringing to light the complexity and realities of life in the sixties. I highly recommend.
