Trivia:
When asked why Madonna, his then-wife was cast in this movie, Guy Ritchie reportedly replied: "Because she was cheap and available." moreGoofs:
Continuity: When Guiseppe and Amber are back from the Island and the guy with the suitcase comes to offer reward money to Guiseppe, he's wearing a blue suit. Guiseppe angrily says he doesn't want his bribe. When the man comes back into the bar with the suitcase ONE MINUTE later at the most - he's wearing entirely different clothes. He has a green suit on. Pretty fast change. moreQuotes:
Tony: Would you show my wife the gym.Guiseppe: Wait here!(takes out an exercise bike) YOUR GYM MADAM!!
Amber: ANTHONY!!!

The DVD format tends to overlight movies. But for Mediterranean-set movies this is an improvement. DVD review.
A mismatched couple end up on a deserted island and fall in love.
I expected that Swept Away would be rubbish. Starring Madonna, directed by Ritchie and is a remake of a '70s movie. However it's actually well made, funny, great looking, contains good dialogue and has a moving ending. Only the silly singing sequence ruins it. Old fashioned movie aimed at older viewers. Reminds me of those Bo Derek/Brook Shields movies from the '80s.
Swept Away is well worth watching.
