a good year - russel crowe

this is going to be a classic one day. this movie includes as a cast: Russell Crowe, Marion Cotillard, Albert Finney, Freddie Highmore, Archie Panjabi, Richard Coyle and by Director Ridley Scott. Written by Marc Klein and runs 118 minutes. it has a touch of tuesdays with morrey and that movie of Keannu reaves, a walk in the clouds(i think). If you watch this movie, (well maybe its not showing in theatres anymore - so rent it on dvd) you have a feeling as if you are reading it directly from the book. Although i didnt read the book it originated from, thats what it feels though. i dont know why i get to watch a lot of feel good movies lately, but it is a feel good movie. its very much like russel crowe, lately. he's been making feel good movies for a while now(i loved cinderella man by the way)


well let me tell you a little bit about the movie without spilling too much. Max(Crowe) is a cold stock exchange specialist(if thats what they call 'em) and finds out that his uncle died and he is the receiver of the estate(vineyard) his uncle leaves behind(he is the nearest of kin) so he decides to cash in. but as he spends time in the vineyard, things get a little bit complicated. and this is the part where i say, "watch the movie coz thats all you are getting!" well, i might end up ruining it for you. so enjoy.
