The performance of Samantha Morton was excellent. When I saw the cast I didn't realise that it was just the voice of Timothy Spall that appears in the film. I really like Timothy Spall, but I'm not a great fan of narration in movies.
I think the actors that played the children both younger and older did very well and I really liked the battling grannies who were begrudgingly fond of each other.
I did not really like the jumping back and forth in time. A little of that kind of thing is okay, but there was too much of it here.
The scenery is lovely and it is overall a gentle tale with some sad and sinister moments.
