Plot:
Based on author Peter Mayle's international bestseller of the same name, A Good Year stars Russell Crowe as Max Skinner (Freddie Highmore plays him as a child), a cunning investment expert who, after learning his beloved Uncle Henry (Albert Finney) has died without a last will and testament, travels from London to Provence to visit the gorgeous, if overgrown vineyard he's inherited. Slowly, the women (especially Fanny Chenal, played by Marion Cotillard, the sultry owner of the local café), wine, and Mediterranean climate transforms him from a soulless, unloved miser into a warm-hearted man able to appreciate the world he's let pass by him far too long.
