surprisingly good

I love watching movies based on historical figures.

However movies such as: Elizabeth, The Duchess, and Marie Antoinette
 end with a beheading or the heroine having to choose duty over love.

This movie, although there is some conflict, is one of the greates love stories I have seen in a while.

Maybe one of the reasons I love it so much is it reminds me a little of Alan and I with the letters written, giggling over a chess game, and they way they want to go through
 life together without one person trying to control the other one.

It is beautiful ,suprisingly innocent, and a great story line.
