Trivia:
The three poems we see Lucy (Liv Tyler) compose while in Italy are:- 1. I have her secret deep within for years I've had to hide I've bought the clues And now I'm hope To bring the truth outside
- 2. I wait I wait so patiently I'm as quiet as a cup I hope you'll come and rattle me Quick! Come wake me up.
- 3. The dye is cast The dice are rolled I feel like shit you look like gold.
Goofs:
Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Lucy enters the Tuscan Villa for the first time you see a swallow (hirundo rustica) flying combined with the creeching call of the swift (apus apus). moreSoundtrack:

This is an amazing movie. Sure, I may be overstating it, but I LOVED it! It is beautiful, captivating, and just perfect. I like the acting, I like the actors, I love the plot. Liv Tyler plays a young woman who travels to Italy to learn a few things about her family and love... her acting is perfect for the role she plays. They did a good job of casting her.
