Közel a szerelemhez

As unlikely as a romance between two people who share no common language may seem, "Kozel a szerlemhez" provides an entertaining, if not wholly convincing, portrayal of how it could happen.

The naivette and utter ingenuousness of the main character carry the film along its unlikely path. The fact that his new love doesn't speak his language does not phase him in the least bit. The scenes where they attempt limited communication are charming and add to the warm lightheartedness at which the movie most succeeds.

There are a few abrupt, tense scenes which jump out from the main story, but overall I emerged from the theater with a smile on my face and fond thoughts of this delightful film.
