 Rating: - Lovely Scenery and Bittersweet StoryAngela Lansbury is one of my favorite actresses and she is excellent in this touching story which brought tears to my eyes more than once. The other actors, primarily British, are also very good and the English scenery is lovely. It's rather nice to see a movie where the main character is female, 63, and still searching for answers instead of being wise and all knowing.

The most notorious of these, caiman, even refuses to give a refund or an exchange for YOUR mistake in having ordered a PAL version.

They ring so true, using my family and other families I know as a guide. Forget those that say this is nothing like the book or give it only one or two stars. This movie does stand on it's own and the acting is great. Rating: - The Shell SeekersI had read the book and enjoyed it. The movie followed the story line in a believable manner. |
