 Rating:  - Simply nice; warm and touching.I came upon this movie accidentally and I have to say I loved it from the very beginning. I have watched it a few more times since then and I am sure it will become a classic, one of those movies that get you every time you watch it. Wonderful acting by Joan Plowright and an excellent performance by Rupert Friend. This story tells of the accidental (literally) meeting by two lonely souls that blossoms into a warm and caring friendship. I really LOVE this movie and highly recommend it. Rating:  - What a supriseWas not expecting anything, but the movie pulled me in. Very enjoyable and helps you review your own life.

I somehow feel cocooned in a warm, comfortable blanket while I watch the interplay of the main characters, almost as if I was ensconced before a fireplace. Ms. Plowright is one of the finest actresses I know, ... Read More Rating:  - Slow and predictableI didn't like the superficial and syrupy way the movie portrayed the subject matter. Rupert Friend was thoroughly unconvincing. The dialogue was trite. The characters were all stereo-typical. I expected much more and was disappointed by just about everything but the scenery. A slow, totally unconvincing and highly predictable movie. Plowright's appearance was the only other redeeming factor. The issues of aging, loneliness and unlikely friendship could and should have been presented ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
