Love is All You Need is a 2012 romantic comedy by Danish director Susanne Bier and starring Pierce Brosnan and Trine Dyrholm. A love story and two families come together on the picturesque Amalfi Coast. The fates of Philip and Ida two bruised souls are about to intertwine as they embark for a trip to Italy to attend the wedding of Patrick and Astrid, Philip's son and Ida's daughter. This is a film about the simple yet profound pains and joys of moving on - and forward - with your life and will leave only the hardest heart untouched.
This is a real adult romantic comedy, almost like Mamma Mia! but better! This film is subtitled, alternating between Danish, Italian and English, but the variety of languages doesn't stop the romance.
* Dyrholm has an unusual magnetism, the kind of face that seems open and
unguarded, yet you can't figure out just what it is she's thinking - she
and Brosnan share an excitingly adult chemistry.*
TIME Magazine
*Buffeted by languorous Italian vistas and the emotional depth of the
characters, the film falls more into the Nancy Meyers camp of rom com,
in which relatable late-in-life romances are played out against
sumptuous settings.*
