Bread and Tulips (2001)

Romantic Comedy Italian Style (English subtitles) - Middle-aged housewife gets separated from her family on a vacation bus tour and decides to hitchhike home! A fun adventure starts as her 2nd ride takes her to Venice and she falls in love with the charm of the water city, and decides to extend her vacation by staying there and even working a part-time job at a flower shop. In a short time she makes new friends and even finds romance. Her family misses her dearly (mostly for cooking and cleaning), and she has a major decision to make. Lovable characters, smart dialog, and nice settings. I enjoyed this wacky low budget film. 95 minutes.
