Sentimental comedy confection
5 February 2005
"Seducing Doctor Lewis" tells of a French-Canadian fishing village which is on the dole and on the list of locations for a new factory. The latter would get the fishermen of the played out waters new jobs and off welfare, so the townspeople conspire to seduce a doctor to coming to their village with the hope he'll stay on as their resident physician. The result is a charming little comedy full of good natured and earnest characters and their inept attempts at deception and fraud which lead to the inevitable happily ever after fairy tale conclusion. Enjoyable, light hearted. mildly amusing family film fare, "Seducing Doctor Lewis" should appeal to anyone into Disneyesque films who can contend with subtitles. (B-)
