One of my favorites. Not because of the acting, or the story, or the ending, but the feelings that it flat out forces you to feel. Orlando Bloom is not a great actor, but he slow plays you into loving this story. Kirsten Dunst is lovely and makes you want to fall in love all over again.
I come from a small southern town and the family story is everything you would expect from it. The reverence and respect for those who have preceded us is ingrained to us whether we want it or not. Love this part.
All in all, worth a rewatch every 6 months or so. For the soundtrack if nothing else. Well done Mr Crowe-
