The casting and acting was very good. The scenery was breathtaking. The wardrobe choices were great, but then how hard is it to dress Julia Roberts? This is a story about a woman going thru a divorce. Not so much the legal components but the emotional turmoil of being stripped of your identity of a “wife” and rebuilding ones self. The main character is very philosophical, evolved and curious and had the means to explore these other cultures in search of enlightenment. In some ways, I thought the movie skimmed over the emotional and philosophical turmoil that the book covered and that most divorced women go thru, but then, who would want to sit and watch all of that? I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. The guy next to me, endured it. Therefore I would say it will resonate with divorced women…..single women might get it, men will just have to be supportive of their dates, smile and say, “that was beautiful”. Not sure I’d recommend it to all of my friends, but definitely my divorced friends!!!
