About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a gentle, old-fashioned teen romance with a light caper feel and lots of Paris-to-Venice travel charm; Not for you if contrived plots or precocious-kid dialogue bother you, like in Gregory's Girl.
Pros: sweet first-love story; charming older accomplice; gorgeous European scenery | Cons: contrived, unrealistic moments; uneven tone and length; some off-putting attitudes
