Under the Tuscan Sun is a
2003 romantic comedy film. Based on Frances Mayes' 1996 memoir, the film is about a just-divorced American writer who buys
a villa in Tuscany, hoping it will be the start of a change
for the better in her life.
Frances is a writer in
her mid-'30s who feels emotionally upset after her divorce. Unhappy and unable
to write, she doesn’t know what to do with her life, and her best friend Patti
decides she needs some time away from her problems - Patti gives Frances a
ticket for a two-week tour of the Tuscany region of Italy; while there, Frances
finds a decaying old villa. Charmed by
the kindness, beauty, and charm of the small town of Cortona, she on impulse
decides to buy the villa, thinking she can fix it up herself. She hires a crew of Polish immigrants to
renovate the house. Over time Frances develops a new
confidence as she makes friends with her neighbours and finds love with a
handsome local named Marcello, but their relationship does not
last. She is about to give up on happiness ...
I recommend you watch this delightful film which has an enjoyable story, excellent scenery and charming characters ... Just an old favourite of mine!
