An incredibly tedious and overlong yet enchanting love story of a Danish woman who moves to Africa with her newly wed husband but then falls in love with another man. Streep and Redford do a fine job in their roles. Either recommended to lovers of love stories, or people who can watch an eight hour Civil War documentary and like it. Winner of 7 Academy Awards.
