Fantastic! Buy this DVD if you love Romance!
Added 8/30/2008
This is a keeper! What a movie! Where was I when this movie came out? This is a great romance although it has a very sad ending.
This is a must see if you love romance and passion. I don't want to say too much because it's a complicated movie to discribe. It's intriguing.
Both the main actors are outstanding and you will feel their love and their pain.
You need to order this one right now ladies, just get it! You will not be disappointed!

Swept from the sea DVD
Added 6/26/2008
It is a good scenario, a bit far fetched because the ship is a total disaster when reality dictates there should be a few survivors, but overall the story is an interesting study of humanity, especially at the end... enjoy, I did.....

Film is fantastic, official Amazon review is not
Added 3/28/2008
The official Amazon review of Swept from The Sea has some egregious errors that should be corrected, if merely for product representation. The review states that Yanko is a Polish salior who is considered retarded by the people of Kent. While in the Conrad's short story, Amy Foster, Yanko is a Polish salior, in the film, Yanko is a Russian highlander, who boards an immigrant ship bound for America. Also, neither in the short story nor the film is Yanko considered retarded, he is considered a madman.
However, I love this film, it has been a favorite of mine since it was released 10 years ago. It was my introduction to Rachel Weisz, who captivates in a largely silent role with heart wrenching expressions and just a pure, commanding presence. This was also my introduction to Vincent Perez, who creates a great chemistry with Weisz, the earthly Yanko managing to touch and forever hold on to, the ethereal Amy, even in death. If you are looking for a romantic film with substance, Swept from The Sea is it.
