    Bridges of Madison County

    by raenux

    One of my all time favorite movies. So romantic! Meryl Streep and Clint Eastwood do an outstanding job captiivating their characters! It's like you are a part of what they are feeling, sharing, etc! It all starts out so innocently and becomes so romantic. Like living in a dream for some of us! Clint Eastwood has the rough aging way of being so hard, yet soft! I don't think enough will ever be said regardign Meryl Streep and her abilities to pull a person in to her character! I highly recommend viewing this movie, if you have not yet had the opportunity!!!!
