Harriet is an assistant to Sheikh
Muhammed, he would like to bring the sport of fly-fishing to the desert
of Yemen. Harriet contacts Dr. Alfred Jones, he is an expert on
fly-fishing and the Sheikh's favorite lure is one made by Dr. Jones.
Fred thinks the entire idea of bringing salmon to the desert must be a
ridiculous joke? Political forces in
Britain push him into the project and he begins to believe that this
could really happen. Also as a joke, he asks to meet with the engineers of a
large dam, they show up in his office soon after?
I liked this
movie, the nice easy pace and the idea that this seems like it can't
happen but then maybe it can happen? Blunt and McGregor fit well as a
couple but you don't know how this will turn out either? 3 1/2* (I liked
this movie)
107 min, Drama directed by Lasse Hallstrom with Emily
Blunt, Ewan McGregor, Amr Waked, Catherine Steadman, Tom Mison, Rachael
Stirling, Kristin Scott Thomas.
Note: Blockbuster 2*, imdb 6.9 out of 10, 68% critic 70% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
