Another film that could've been made better with a slight alteration.
The thing that lets this movie down is the story, there are quite a few holes, which if filled, would've made this film better.
For example, there is one character whose resolve is said to be strong, but when challenged it dissipates quickly into the ether. The same character has beliefs that are quashed almost instantaneously. Even though it's a minor character, had these points been resolved more realistically it not only would have strengthened them, but also the film.
On the upside, the actors do their characters proud and portray them well. The direction is nice and keeps the film moving along at a steady pace, which works well for a love story.
If you've not watched this before, and there's nothing else on the telly, and it raining or snowing outside, the ironing's been done, and the floors hoovered, then I say grab a drink (preferably alcohol) and watch this film in front of the fire.
