A movie about serendipity and spontaneity.

A charming little film, filled with eccentric characters and ingratiating performances.

Maglietta gives a magical performance in this lightweight but flavorsome comedy.

Soldini's consistently understated touch, and a poignant turn by Licia Maglietta as the confused and bemused main character, turns Bread and Tulips into a character study worth studying.
67
It's an endearing romantic daydream, but misses the bus where matters of reality are concerned.
50
A happy ending is never at issue here -- it's clear where she's going, but there's little clue where she's been.
40
A little too shopworn and pokey to be more than a respectable European diversion.
