Character P Russel Crowe plays as a highly successful stressed out commodity trader in London. He is entitled & bored. Crowe receives word that his favorite childhood uncle has passed, and he inherits the small estate. Initially, he treats it as any other commodity; hoping to sell for a quick profit. During the course of the movie, he realizes that his uncle had been training him for succession, and how to live without stress. The estate is actually part of a winery that is very successful. He re-establishes a friendship from his youth, and he decides to keep the winery, and live a simple life. A nice romantic comedy with life lessons. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/25 Full Review thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/22/25 Full Review Dillon W My favorite movie of all time, it has low reviews which makes no sense to me. It has an atmosphere to it that I have never come across on any other mover. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/04/25 Full Review Keith F A Hollywood 'blockbuster' this is not, however as a P/T resident in the area just south, and a fan of the distinguished (1930s) Provencal author/director Marcel Pagnol, as well as being a Scot, there are many traits, much humour, and character cameos, this remains a very endearing film. Characters, local and ex-pat, are fully recognisable, as with Pagnol decades earlier. The film does reflect how one falls in love with both the terroir, the people, and the culture, if one is open-minded with no expectations other than 'this is Provence', a unique life-style, where values lay in what individuals bring and how they interact: the relationships they form and grow. Peter Mayle, with a long history of the region, is a superb writer and reflects life as an ex-pat with experience, ridiculing no one yet everyone, offering a snap-shot of northern Provence, not as a tourist, but as someone who becomes engaged. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/16/25 Full Review Nigel S Marion Cottillard, the only reason, I watched it to the end. Russell Crowe was neither believable or funny, the script was lame, and the pace as slow as a French snail. What on earth was Ridley Scott thinking?
