This almost drifts into telenovela quality ... the thing that saves it (if you allow me to put it that way), are the actors. Especially Alec Baldwin is quite the powerhouse this movie one may thing does not deserve. Generally speaking all the actors are really good.
Still the story is predictable to a degree that almost leaves nothing hidden ... what also drags this down are some editing choices. Like towards the end when there is an accident and we see the reactions of peasants (clearly not actors), that is completely missplaced and feels weird if I were to put it mildly ... But again, if you buy into the love story of the whole thing, you may not even care - which again is a testament to the lead actors if anything
