Lorna Singh's rating of the film Bread and Tulips
Lorna Singh

Bonus points should be given for not making this film too sentimental despite a Venice setting and theme of 'woman starts a new life'. Good performances and a likeable main character do make up for fact that it's not really funny and there is not enough for the characters to do,for it to be a drama.
