-
Making your film as reserved and introverted as the main character is not big or clever.
-
You may be turned off by the film's long and artless title, but after taking in this exquisitely restrained romance between man and woman, man and nature, the known and the unknown, you'd be hard pressed to find a title as earnest and true as the film itself.
-
This is a quiet charming movie with Emily Blunt. Kristin Scott Thomas is a bonus.
-
Yet another feel-good movie, Scott-Thomas should have featured in it more as she was hilarious.
