Belle Epoque review by JD
Well shot rom-com

The outstanding feature of this film is the beautiful photography that seems to be common in French Spanish and Italian films. May be it is the natural lighting. But so too is the rather bland plot. I didn't find the characters engaging. It is not a bad film and I suspect has a rom-com audience in mind.

The lavish scenery and warmth of the characters make you want to jump on the next available flight in this lovely humorous journey into the lives and loves of a Spanish family.

Belle Epoque review by Swambi
Yawn...

I didn't find this film living up its description, and really wonder why it won any awards. My predominant impression was boredom. The subtitled Spanish discussion of republican and other politics was not engaging, the acting was wooden, and I struggled to have even a small smile at any of the antics. I think it just failed to convince. Although set in the 1930's there was little trace of a war, it seemed much more like a holiday camp. There was no impression real feeling, and from the interaction between the characters it seemed they characters were sharing a brain between them. The scenery and cinematography were nothing impressive, and I didn't it sexy, heart-warming or funny. But it did seem long!
