Featured review
This is your average BBC TV movie of the 1990s and 2000s that is so badly done so as to make little sense. The editing is all over the place, the timeline fluid to the point where the viewer is jerked back and forth. While the message of the movie is an important one, and the story sad, the poor quality production makes a mockery of both! Low budget productions can often be good.....this is horrible!
