Provence

warning : very cheesy content ahead...





Have you watched the movie A Good Year with Russell Crowe and Marion Cotillard? Very lovely film about a typical a**hole in finance who inherits a castle and wineyard in Provence, mais vous savez déjà ce qu'un endroit paradisiaque (et une belle fille) peut avoir comme influence sur votre caractère...


drooling at the food.



This is a remake of an adaptation of a very popular romance novel back in the 1970s in China. I can't believe I finished the entire show a few summers ago. It's a delicate mix of very bad acting, fake & robotic dialogues that give you goosebumps, beautiful scenery, and a love story between a very selfish girl with an IQ of about a tomato and an older rich-sophisticated-retardedly nice man. Of course the best part of this cool series was the scenes shot in Provence. Just try to watch the intro without puking :)
