A GOOD YEAR: A London investment banker (Russell Crowe) learns that a favorite, but estranged, uncle in France has died, leaving him to inherit a château and vineyard in Provence. Max heads to Provence, hoping to sell the estate, but has a change of heart as memories from his childhood, partly spent there, come flooding back. A beautiful local woman and a young American who claims to be Henry’s illegitimate daughter further distract him.
Director-producer Ridley Scott. Screenplay Marc Klein. Based on the book by Peter Mayle. Director of photography Philippe Le Sourd.
