bread and tulips, cannes award winner, italian film w/ subtitles, an unbiased commentary
rating: pretty good!
using my second to last 10-week rental from blockbuster, i ended up with this movie. i picked it purely by the desire to watch a foreign film and the cannes award. i didn't consult my personal movie expert (a friend who watches every movie that is watchable). i told her about it and she said it was good (if she remembered correctly). i was quit happy about it before watching it! :P bread and tulips, i bet you are wondering what a weird combination. the tulip part was explained but not the bread which has left me puzzled. i shall consult the movie expert. unless the huge hunk of bread left on the table for breakfast explains it. ok, i am moving towards my commentary...this quirky film has a bit of humor which is very pleasant. i found myself laughing out loud at a simple line or action. the story is about an italian housewife who gets left behind at a bus stop on a family vacation. she travels to venice because she has never been there and is on the road to self-discovery. interesting characters, dialogue, and scenery makes this movie pretty good! i was very pleased with my choice.

let's see which movie i will end up with this week...this will mostly likely be the end of my frequent commentaries.

btw:dorothy the goldfish is dying! it has black spots now! tis will be a sad experience for the kiddies (who have not noticed the black spots).
