I thought Antonio and Jennifer were fantastic in this movie..it was interesting, informative and had a great plot. I think it was one of their greatest movies and they both should be proud..

Chile and Argentina have gone through tragic years during the 70's, and this movie attempted to tackle what happened - everyday at the time, in Chile. Two good actors (Banderas and Connelly) seem lost in a poor script and directorship, although Allende knew the subject from the inside (I did not read her book yet). Banderas could not concentrate and acted quite bad, and you can see that the way his eyes wander in several scenes with Jennifer. She makes a big effort in her role, but this is not one of her good movies. In Jennifer's attempt to bring the South American political disaster to the screen, a much better (remarkable) film is Waking the Dead. A must see! Note: their love scene in Of Love and Shadows could produce a tender moment in this play, but was grossly produced and the director missed the chance, unfortunately.

I can see how this film might appeal to some people, especially to those on the extreme left as it tends to push to the forefront socialist causes like egalitarianism, homosexuality, and spirituality.
Antonio Banderas plays a communist photographer who meets a magazine editor played by Jennifer Connelly. As he befriends her, he tries to steal her from her fiancé and persuade her to his left-wing idealogy.
It is definitely not a film for everyone, but it will appeal to some women, especially those who like Antonio Banderas - the camera is fixated on him, and ignores the beautiful Jennifer Connelly in their love-making scene. It will probably also appeal to the extreme left and gay community, though Jennifer Connelly fans will surely be disappointed.

If you love to see people loving, you will probably love that part of this movie. However this movie is also about a War on Terrorism. It may challenge some of the common ideas that we Americans get from our corporate controlled media. There's alot of beauty in this movie; but there's also something ugly. It is timely, especially now in America.

I FOUND THIS TO BE A VERY INTERESTING MOVIE WITH ONE OF THE TENDEREST LOVE SCENES I HAVE SEEN IN A LONG TIME. IT MAY BE A LITTLE ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES IN CERTAIN PARTS, BUT OVERALL I LOVE THIS MOVIE, AND WILL WATCH IT AGAIN AND AGAIN.
