The story is as basic as a peasant meal -- and just as hearty.
Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
Overview
A nurse and her surgeon-lover are part of a resistance movement in 1940s Czechoslovakia. When they are discovered, her lover flees and she must find a place to hide. A patient whose life she saved, a man from a remote mountain village where time stopped 150 years ago, agrees to hide her as his wife.

Sometimes transcends its predictability. But at two and a half hours, 'sometimes' isn't really often enough.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

Humble, heartwarming storytelling with good acting and lush visuals.

See it as a war romance, and you'll like it.
Marta Barber, Miami Herald
Rotten
Trojan's direction is capable, and Asen Sopov's dark-hued cinematography is even better than that. The only thing missing is an appreciation for drama that does more than deliver the expected.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
