First off, I gave this an extra star in honor of the Victory rose that lived in our backyard for 44 years before I moved - and now lives in a a friend's yard and produces magnificent scented blooms for her every year. My mother wanted me to dig her up and toss her away 25 years ago because she thought the bush was dead. I said, "Lets give her until next spring and see what happens." Oh, my. She was magnificent that next spring.
Okay - back to the movie! It grows on you. I mean it. Not trying to be funny, but it really does. The people grow and learn and so do we. And it is worth it all to get to the last 10 minutes and that includes the credits where you are treated to magnificent photos of beautiful roses.
Yes. I cried.
One reviewer said it was spoiled by political correctness. I found it anything but that! Maybe we saw different French films.
Please - if you want a heartfelt film, this is it. Plus, you might actually learn a thing or two.
