  If there is a romantic bone in your body, you will love this movie. This is one that stays with you for days after viewing it.
It’s about love and politics. And religion. And the wrath of God. It entangles the reality of the lost city of Pompeii and the destruction caused there, but there is a fictional love story as well which is done so very well.
You can feel the chemistry between these two characters. Kit Harington (Game of Thrones, which I’ve not yet seen) and Emily Browning play the young, would-be couple and Kiefer Sutherland plays a perfectly detestable antagonistic ass.
Basically, a slave falls in love with an absolutely beautiful daughter of a wealthy merchant.
The film was just released in February of this year. Love, love, love! Go rent it when you’re in the mood for a fabulous love story.
Enjoy your weekend.
