I'm somewhat puzzled by the reviewers (many professional) that couldn't appreciate the fairy-tale storyline and suspend their disbelief. This is one of the cutest, most romantic movies I have ever seen. It is all about the power of love, a fast-forward view of a whole lifetime lived within a short honeymoon. From a spotless wedding-gown to withering away as we age, with love that only grows stronger and more true. This is definitely a love-it or hate-it movie, though everyone seems to agree that the acting was superb. It's the size and softness of your heart that will determine if you love it, some people just don't get romance. I have seen it now several times on video, and I still can't help but cry when it rains rice and when Silas and Camille dance in the rain to the "Ways of Way Back When." And I'm a grown man, go figure. Beautiful, stunning movie, a fairy tale for those who have lived long enough to understand true love, whether they've found it or not.
