Really wonderful period romantic comedy. If you haven't seen it, you simply must. It'll make you swoon.
When it came out, I was working in a movie theater and the trailer was the butt of many jokes among the staff, particularly the one actress who exclaimed with OTT outrageousness "Madame GEORGE SAND has quite BRAZENLY INVITED HERSELF TO THE FORTNIGHT!!" We spent many hours imitating that line reading. We were sure it was a dud and that actress must have been one of the dregs of English acting.
Of course, we were wrong. The movie is a complete delight and that actress turned out to be a scene-stealing, pre-fame Emma Thompson.
Oh, and that Judy Davis wasn't too shabby, either.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
