Truly Original

My Life in Ruins was a wonderful movie, with breathtaking REAL SCENERY actually shot in GREECE. It shows REAL RUINS, exploring the feelings of the REAL PEOPLE who lived among them. It is funny and sweet. The stereotypes at the beginning are eventually exposed sympathetically.
The Proposal (shot in Vermont not Alaska) actually was much more predictable. There was the driven woman executive, the misguided tycoon father, the wise pagan grandmother, the zany male stripper, the aborted wedding.
My Life in Ruins is ironic with some gentle insights, and unpretentious with some scenic grandeur.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
