The movie itself is romantic (in a classic sense), visually gorgeous, but has somehow a weak plot (although is a remake of the Italian movie "Quattro Passi Fra Le Nuvole".) Keanu Reeves' acting is... bland (to be polite), but his casting is great because he has to look like a North American lost among those Mexican descendants (which he was.) Anthony Quinn is fabulous and robs the scene to every actor Giancarlo Giannini works here too.

Yes, that's why I said he almost didn't use it. There is a lady that vanishes, that's the real fact. Then there is the reason why she vanishes and that's less... well, believable.Lady Rainbow wrote:I can see a resemblance in the chin and cheeks, Alelou.
Yeah, there it is, there it is. Besides, Meg Ryan would look more like you now if it wasn't for something called "botox".
I was surfing youtube and I found videos about a movie called "A walk among the clouds". *Gasp* There is people that actually has made videos about it. It's a movie with Keanu Reeves and Aitana Sánchez-Gijón, who is one of our most beautiful and classy actresses. The funny part is that she's half Spanish and half Italian. You know, Asso, we should crossbreed our prettiest actors and actresses and see the results
Here is the video of one of the key scenes (I've chosen it because you can see it in higher resolution): http://es.youtube.com/watch?v=wvpY0FlmdUI&feature=related

(I'm in Florida and finally figured out how to stay logged in for a few moments while my father snores. We went to the zoo in Tampa today and now he is exhausted. Well, we all are. Florida in August takes some stamina.)
But really, Aitana is a good actress and is a shame that with so many good actresses the world only knows us for Penélope Cruz
