    She is so beautiful.
    I find her truly elegant and graceful.
    Too bad the Marketing gurus felt the need to photoshop the picture. Or at least it looks so in the last frames of the movie.
    The music is beautiful, but the story is really very much déjà-vu…

      Yes, and they photoshopped him even worse than her…

      FYI she is Isabella Rossellini’s daughter Elettra & the music is “Våren” (Last Spring) by Edvard Grieg. To be honest (having listening to the piece for almost a decade) I find the orchestral arrangement lacking the nuance of the original arrangement for solo voice and piano, but that’s just the nerdy part of me speaking. Anyhow, IMHO the definitive interpretation of the piece: http://www.minilink.me/7835/

      (And the translation of the poem: http://en.allexperts.com/q/Norway-151/Vaaren.htm)

      Isabella was, of course, the original face of Trésor and was even involved in the fragrance development process.

        Odd, my link to the English translation of the original Norwegian poem by Aasmund Olavsson Vinje (1818-1870) refuses to open to its proper location, so here’s (hopefully) a better link–

        What can I say? My computer is doing the darnest things. Sigh.

    She reminds me of Jennifer Love Hewitt; and I like the way that he seems a little shorter than she is. I know it may be her heels, but still – makes a nice change.

      I thought he seemed much shorter until the final shot…wonder if they faked it somehow.

    They make a good couple. Both are good-looking and smart.
    She reminded me of Jennifer Love Hewitt too, but this model is prettier, imo.

      If I’m not mistaken Elettra is attending a two-year graduate school program at the London School of Economics in order to receive a master’s degree in biomedicine. (Not mentioning the fact that her father Jonathan Wiedemann is a Harvard-educated Microsoft design manager and former fashion model!)

        I stand corrected: his father is now a Microsoft exec.
