Chicago Sun-Times, Bill Zwecker: "...best described as sweet, touching, romantic and lovely..." Exactly my sentiments. Sort of a Walk In The Clouds genre story. Nothing great or new, just a very nice story about making the right decisions about life, priorities, and love. For Russell Crowe this role is probably a day off from his usual deep and stressed characters. Suitable for the whole family, although we screened it on an airplane where movies often are edited to ensure they are suitable for all.

Storyline From Yahoo: London-based investment expert Max Skinner (Russell Crowe) travels to Provence to tend a small vineyard he inherited from his late uncle. When he gets suspended from his job under suspicion of fraud, he settles in to life at the chateau, remembering the time he spent there as a child. Then a determined young California girl (Abbie Cornish) arrives claiming to be the illegitimate daughter of the deceased uncle and rightful owner of the vineyard.
