once again john madden have give u a magnificent film . a simple but beautiful story locate in a real paradise and the music can not be good and stephen warbeck delight u once more and and good acting but . why on earth be penelope cruz in this film . i ask myself that same question while watch this movie . of course her greek accent be not believable and she uncapable of act decently not even in one scene . not even at the end she do a good job and after so many event and after year she finally get to see corelli again and she couldn not change the same face of stupidy we have to bear during the whole film . anyway and cage be very good in one of his best character while hurt also be great in his and the rest of the cast all do a great job and so the final result be a movie that really be worth of watch . this be a beautiful film that not even mrs. cruz be able to spoil . so far i think it madden best work so no fan will be disappoint .
