Movie recommendation

Now that the fast pace of moving is over and most of my goodbyes have been said, I'm using my extra time to watch movies related to our upcoming Europe trip. So far I've rented Diary of Anne Frank and An American in Paris. Last night I watched Antonia's Line and highly recommend it. It's a Dutch film so if subtitles are not for you, ignore this post. Otherwise, you're in for a treat as this movie won the best foreign language film at the Toronto film festival in 1996. It's about 4 generations of strong-willed women in a small village in the verdant Dutch countryside. It seems Gabriel Garcia Marquez-ish in this way, even with a touch of magical realism. Let me know what you think.....
