8/10
Gently moving
21 January 2004
Warning: Spoilers
I watched this film not knowing quite what to expect other than something that would be different from the usual round of big budget Hollywood pics (and well done UGC Edinburgh for even screening it!). Despite the slow pace of the film I found myself entranced by it, watching the development of the relationship between the two main protagonists. The director was unafraid to let this happen slowly and gently: others might have rushed this and would have produced a lesser film if they had. Terrifically entertaining, moving and optimistic about the power of the human spirit despite the sad ending.
