... this was an unusual movie to watch-rate... so-uneven at points just wanted to stop watching seeing was on verge of cringeness... other times was as as good as majority of the genre.. even a little better... casting definitely-mostly pulling this one through.

... did want to quit fairly early on
Carr-Wiggin directs
Natasha Little, Rupert Penny-Jones, and Rachel Blanchard star in this well made film. The trick that works is the visible chemistry between Little and Penny-Jones. That tension never realized builds like a forest fire that consumes everything. Their attraction is so explosive that the screen is filled with that unrealized love. This is the first time I have seen something so tangible that is unrequited. There is a lesson in the power of not acting out a momentous emotion until the final moment is consumed by the longest most gentle, lingering kiss. This is a perfect love story where no intercourse interferes.
Charming, funny, at times melancholic, genuinely well done film
Absolutely beautiful film complete with wonderful acting and directing. The undeniable chemistry between main characters left me wanting for more, the love story was sincere and touching. The sub-stories with hotel staff were absolutely hilarious, almost theatrical, giving it a nice backdrop and a well- balanced contrast to the main storyline which felt real and gentle. Loved the film. May we have a sequel?
