Editorial Review:
Screen favorite Jessica Tandy (DRIVING MISS DAISY) stars with Bridget Fonda (KISS OF THE DRAGON) in this feel-good comedy about an unlikely pair who set off on the road to do everything they always wanted! On their madcap journey together, they find themselves losing their car in a lake, being duped by a con man, staging a kidnapping -- and having the time of their lives! If you liked FRIED GREEN TOMATOES and THELMA & LOUISE, you're going to love CAMILLA! It's a delightfully entertaining story that shows that friendship, fun, and adventure are all just part of the ride!
Camilla Reviews:
Camilla - A Gift 
2009-09-12 - I bought this for a birthday gift for my Aunt and she just loved it.
Camilla's GREAT!!!! 
2009-04-28 - This is a wonderfully cast movie. A delightful story that tells a beautiful, heart-warming story. The cast members that were chosen for the parts could not have been better. Bridget Fonda fits the part perfectly. She is not always cast in a roll that amplifies her talent.
What can I say about the always delightful and talented Jessica Tandy!! At the wonderful age of around 82, wow, she is full of spirit and is sorely going to be missed.
Graham Greene plays an interesting character and is a very fine actor. I last saw him in 'The Green Mile' as Arlen Bitterbuck.
This is a very, very good movie. I highly recommend it.
The Road to Discovery
2008-12-20 - This is an attractive little film (Jessica Tandy's last) about two musicians, one old and one young (Fonda), and how they lead each other through a journey of self-discovery. In the beginning both are hamstrung by men (a controlling son and a controlling husband) but by the end both have found ways to set themselves free. Along the way their journey, literally and figuratively, is full of unexpected twists, colorful characters, beautiful scenery and music, and a warm developing friendship between the eccentric but compatible lead characters. The supporting cast, particularly Maury Chaykin as the slovenly porn-producer son, are excellent.
In short, not a blockbuster or an award winner but there are much worse ways to spend an hour and a half.
Camillia the Film was excellent inspiration
2008-10-29 - Camillia was an incredible inspiration and I love Jeccia Tandy and Bridget Fonda so very much as actors and felt inspired and happy to have in my film collection
pleasant surprise
2007-10-08 - I was channel surfing and came across this movie. I love Bridget Fonda so I starting watching. What a surprise. It was witty, touching, and a little off the beaten path of comedy. The music was enchanting. Now I'm on the hunt for the soundtrack.
Follow the twists and turns on their road to adventure and true love. I'm hooked. Can't wait to see it again.
Enjoy it with a friend.
