'la Dolce Villa': The Heart-warming Romcom That Proves Predictability Can Be Charming
If theres one thing movies love, its a classic father-daughter storyline. And if theres one thing Hollywood loves even more, its a dad trying to do his best Liam Neeson impression, minus the particular set of skills.
Netflix's 'La Dolce Villa,' a film that takes us to Italy because, lets be honest, some of us are living through our screens at this point.
Shot in the picturesque village of San Gregorio da Sassola which, for those of us who dont have Italian geography memorised, is near Rome but often lumped in with Tuscany for that extra bit of romance, ' La Dolce Villa' is a visual treat.
Think cobblestone streets, golden sunsets, and a villa in dire need of fixing. Because naturally, whats a feel-good movie without a house in ruins and a questionable life decision?
Scott Foley stars as Eric Field, a widowed father - emphasis on hot widowed father - who is not at all thrilled when his daughter Olivia Maia Reficco ditches the US to buy a one-euro villa in Italy. Yes, one euro, which is R 19,27.
