Audience Member Very sound performances by this strong cast: and excellent direction. The only flaw is the slightly silly sub-plot concerning euthanasia, which is a bit artificial and didactic. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I want to improve my listening skill of english Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member I just loved it. The actors were terrific (especially Penelope Wilton)! There's a sweet soul in there....just have to find it sometimes. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member The subject matter was very deep. It really should've captured me, but it didn't Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member The blurb and the video are about two totally different films. For the record the film I like is the Japanese one, which thankfully doesn't have that annoying American intro... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member really good, love the whole story line. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
