Review title: Caveats
Product review: Meryl Streep's accent doesn't let her down, but she doesn't seem Italian, I don't know why. She does convey the look and feel of someone far from her home who is lost and feels abandoned, a fate that brought her to a troubling place. I remember when they were first making this movie, it looked like Isabella Rossellini had a lock on the part (of "Francesca"), does anyone think she might have made a better Francesca than Meryl Streep? I can't make up my mind, oh well. Rossellini doesn't get a chance to play very many head-on romantic parts, does she, so it's hard to tell whether she has the complexity and resources to carry a movie the way Streep does. (Remember DEATH BECOMES HER, in which Rossellini plays a minor -- very minor -- role while Streep swans it up all over the place? It's a demonstration of old fashioned star power if ever there was one.)PS I do agree this DVD needs an upgrade to widescreen please! Follow the shape of those covered bridges, extend, extend, extend!
