  • I watched this on TV first, then I bought DVD. Alan Rickman & Bill Nighy are a good combination.   It was better if there were a little more surprise.   I hadn't noticed Rachel Griffiths was in this film as of today.

  • Comment:
    It was fun. The story itself is very predictable though, anyway I like Matthew Rhys, so it doesn't matter, lol.

    There are some twists and it breaks our expectations. Beginning of the story, I was wondering why an older guy were looking at younger daughter so much, then around Three-quarter has passed we learn what's going on her life.

    Catherine and Byrne's love is very predictable, but Anne and Strang's is a little twisted. As I wrote, I like Matthew Rhys and it's not only a reason I like better than Catherine and Byrne's couple, I liked Anne and Strang better.
