Popcorn Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Has anyone seen this film? You have to see it if not. It is such a lovely, lovely film. We watched it on DVD on Friday night, and normally I get up half way through a film to stretch my legs and make a drink as I get bored quite easily sitting in one place...but this film....well, I was glued. Here's a little review if you are interested. Cinema Paradiso Review I still feel all warm inside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Blue Sky Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Haven't seen it, but will look out for it now, thank you. The last film I saw that had me glued to the sofa was The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, a lovely story and twisty enough to keep your interest.

Mrs Frugal Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I love it, Gina . It's one of my favourites and I've got it on DVD. If you liked that, try Il Postino which is equally heart warming and like going on a gentle holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 I have never seen it, but it has been on my tooo watch list for a long time now! Whenever its onn I always forget to set Sky+,maybe I should just splash out on the DVD? I was in Henley last week & they were filming a Bollywood Extravaganza in the square....lots of gorgoeus girls in bright colours dancing around & lovely boys picking them up & twirling them....it was fab We get a lot of filming here, in fact I may even put my house on one of those location websites Wierdest thing was when they filmed in the little local garage up the road from me for a TV show,& used the inside of that for the interior shots,then for the outside shots they used another garage,which was next door to my Mums house in Dartmouth,Devon. I forget the show now...Pauline Quirk,all about self sufficiancy...someone will remember! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Thats the one - thank you The also used the exterioir of Henley town hall, & for the interior shots used a place in Dartmouth where you could see the river from the windows. We had great fun spotting the 2 towns we know really well in the same show Apparantly they may be filming some of the new Harry Potter locally, I will certainly be loitering around set for that one!

Have you seen that? I think it's in Belgiun (that spelling looks wrong!) That's another lovely film worth a viewing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
