Under the Tuscan Sun  (12A)   113 mins

"Life offers you a thousand chances - all you have to do is take one."

Academy Award nominee Diane Lane stars as Frances Mayes, a 35-year-old San Francisco writer whose perfect life has just taken an unexpected detour.  Her recent divorce has left her with terminal writer's block and extremely depressed, and her best friend, Patti, is beginning to think she might never recover.  Frances decides to take a break and she buys a villa in the beautiful Tuscan countryside and resolves to begin anew.  Restoring her new home, she eventually finds the fulfilment she was searching for, including love.  This is the film to cheer up the darkening days of Autumn and recall the sun and the warmth of Summer (well, in Italy anyway!)  Stunning landscapes, lovely direction by Audrey Wells from Frances Mayes' novel - the sort of film you want to hug and which is guaranteed to give you an immensely pleasurable night out.

"Irresistible."  Boston Globe

"Funny and touching.  This is the most beautiful film of the year.  Tuscan Sun is for everyone."  San Francisco Chronicle
