Beauty in Trouble

Czech

Contemporary slice-of-life fairy tale. A beautiful woman with two kids whose husband goes to prison for car theft meets a richie who sweeps her of her feet and spirits her and the kids away to his estate in Tuscany. Extremely improbable story made a bit more palatable by having her deal with her outrageously annoying relatives. Does Czech culture allow some special license for people to be obnoxious?

This was well enough done to hold me all the way but other than the anthropological points the film was unmemorable.
