Based upon the true story of London playwright and actor Alan Bennett's (Alex Jennings') unusual multi-year relationship with an eccentric elderly, homeless woman he knew as Miss Mary Shepherd (Dame Maggie Smith) in the 1970s before allowing her to park her van in the driveway of his home. She stayed there for fifteen years. Miss Shepherd was, in fact, Margaret Fairchild, former pupil of pianist Alfred Cortot. She played Chopin in a concert, and after she tried to become a nun, was institutionalized by her brother. Living in fear of being caught and sent back, she had an accident when her van was hit by a motorcyclist for which she believed herself to blame, and thereafter was also fearful of arrest.

I liked this movie a lot. I have seen a lot of movies in my life and I've seen a lot of movies in my life. I have seen many, many movies that I would rate at least a 7 or 8 out of 10, but this movie I thought was very good. I thought the actors were great, especially the lead actress, who played the role of a woman who has lost her memory. I think she did a great job. I also thought the story was very good. I think it was a very good movie, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes a good movie. I think it is very good. It is a good movie, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes a good movie.

After hearing the story of the original film I was skeptical. But this one is truly worth the wait. Truly a gem. A story of a great man and his work. This is no ordinary film. It is truly a classic. The story is the best I have seen in a long time. The actors are excellent. The chemistry between them is strong. The characters are great. The setting is wonderful. It is a story that is well told and told well. It's a film that I will always remember.

I loved this movie. Every scene was great, the costumes, the cast, the story. I loved the acting, the script, the direction, the editing, the costumes, the sets, the cinematography, everything. Every aspect was superb. I even liked how this movie kept the audience on the edge of their seats. Even though it is a family movie, you will be surprised to see how much you will love this movie. I cannot wait to see it again.

This is the story of a young man who is caught between his work and his love. He finds himself falling in love with his neighbor and her son. He is not alone. All the people in this world are in love with their neighbor and that neighbor is in love with the people of this world. I found this movie very moving. The main character is trying to find himself, but is also being torn apart by the people around him. It is a story about love and friendship. The movie has a great message about people. There is not a happy ending in this movie, but a sad ending. This movie is great because it teaches us that no one is perfect. Love is a wonderful thing, but when it is mixed with money, it can destroy you. It is also a story about the idea that all people are in love with their neighbor. This is one of those movies that you should see, because you will find yourself relating to the characters and thinking about it for a long time. It is a story about love, but also about friendship. I recommend this movie to everyone who loves a good story. The people in the movie are wonderful and you will like them. This is one of the best movies I have ever seen.

I was expecting a fairly simple and conventional tale of a middle-aged woman who was divorced from her husband and adopted a child, and who was slowly losing her marriage. But I was so pleasantly surprised at how the story unfolded that I was glad to see it ended happily, but still emotionally intact. I have not read the book, but I can say with confidence that this movie was a lot better than I expected. The actors were superb, especially Jason Isaacs as the widower. I hope this movie will continue to gain success in the future. If anyone knows where I can find the movie, please let me know!

I'm not sure how many people will find this film interesting or entertaining. I do think it is a very deep, thoughtful film. But for me, the main character was the greatest actor in this movie. Yes, he was a very complex and very beautiful character, but the character of Charles Schultz was so interesting. He had a very intelligent and realistic personality, but he had a deep and difficult personal life. His character was so true to the human condition. I'm not sure if people are going to like this film or not, but I think that the people who liked it will like it a lot. I think it's a very profound movie, but the message is very profound. I recommend this movie to anyone who likes a movie with a lot of depth and is interested in human nature and human behavior.

I was brought up in a Jewish family and that heritage is reflected in this film. The humor in this film is more subtle, but the message is still there. The acting was incredible and believable. I don't think this film is a one time watch. I would recommend this film to anyone that is a true true art lover.

If there is any film that would really capture the true meaning of love, this would be it. John Waters' masterpiece could be seen as a little "deep" film, but it's not. It's about something that goes beyond all that. It's about love, and how one can love in different ways, and how one can have such deep feelings and still not love someone. It's about dealing with people, and about not letting anyone get to you. It's about not trying to find out what is love, and what is not. It's about not letting the world decide what is love, and what is not. And finally, it's about saying that all relationships are equal, regardless of what gender, age, etc. But above all, it's about love. All in all, a great film that I think everyone should see at least once in their life.

I was thrilled to see this film. It's a wonderful adaptation of a true story. It's not perfect, but I can't imagine why anyone would want to see a film adaptation of a true story that isn't 100% accurate. There are a lot of things that are missing, but that doesn't take away from the movie. The performances are excellent. The performances of Idris Elba and Ben Foster are both fantastic. They bring to life the characters and do a fantastic job. But what really makes this film is how realistic the writing is. It is truly a story that you can relate to. It's also very entertaining and exciting. I wouldn't have enjoyed it any more if it weren't for the great performances. It is an incredible story, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. It is a must see for everyone.

I saw this film at the TIFF in Toronto and I was blown away. This film is very powerful and very touching. I cried throughout the whole movie. The acting was wonderful, and it is a shame that the movie was not nominated for an Oscar. I believe that the Academy should have nominated this film. I believe that this film should have been nominated for an Oscar, but sadly, I don't think it will. I hope that this movie is nominated and I am sure that it will be. This movie is truly a wonderful movie. I hope that the Academy will nominate it for Best Picture and Best Director. I believe that this film should have been nominated for Best Film and Best Director. This movie is a must see for all of the people who have not seen this movie. It is a must see for people of all ages and races. I am sure that you will love this movie.

I think that this movie is the most powerful and powerful statement I've seen in the last year. I have watched it a few times now and it is the best movie I've ever seen. As I watch it I don't think about it as a film but as a piece of art. It is the most profound statement I've seen in the last 10 years, and that is saying a lot. The story, the dialogue, the images, the emotions, the symbolism, the everything. It is a complete package and it is worth watching it a few times. The characters are all amazing and I would have no trouble liking them. You should not be afraid of how much you will laugh at the humor of it. This is not a movie for the faint of heart. I found myself crying a lot. I found myself laughing a lot and I'm not the sort of person who cries in movies. If you don't like movies where you cry you should stick to dramas and other types of films. I think that this is the best movie that I've ever seen. 10/10

I had a chance to see this film on video, so I rented it. I thought it was an excellent movie. I love the chemistry between the two main characters. I love the characters. They are very interesting and believable. It is a nice family movie. It was very good to see John Travolta and Meryl Streep in a movie together. This movie was very realistic. It is a great movie to watch with your family. I think it is a great family movie.

There is a lot to like in this film. A movie that I hope you will see. There is a lot of truth in this movie, and it is not something to be hidden away. It's about people and how they react to situations. It is about the people who you would never think would ever become involved in something like this. It is about the different situations that you would expect to encounter in a normal life, and you would never expect to encounter them. The only thing I would have done differently is to have had more detail to the story. There are a few things that could have been explained better, but I do not think that was the director's fault. I do believe that it was the director's job to make the movie as good as it was. I think he did a good job. I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes a good movie. I would also recommend it to anyone who likes to laugh at some of the things that they have seen. I think that everyone should watch this movie.

This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. I have seen it over 10 times and I still enjoy it. I really like it because it is funny and sad at the same time. The people that make this movie are very talented. I have also read the book and it is the best book ever written. This movie is very different than the book. The book is more about the mother and her relationship with the husband, the daughter, and the son. The movie is very different, but it is still very good. I think that this is one of the best movies I have ever seen and it is the best movie I have ever seen.

This movie is a real masterpiece. Everything about it is exceptional. The acting, directing, and photography are all first rate. The story is really original and truly captivating. The fact that it is about an 80s music icon is brilliant, because I was born in the 80s, so it is a nice reminder of a time when the best music was being produced, and the audience was truly drawn into the experience. There are so many amazing things about this movie. But first and foremost, it is an extraordinary film about a true love. An actress and a human being. The "love" that the protagonist, Carly is seeking is not about being in love with the two stars, but in being in love with her friend, Mary (Judd Nelson), who is also the star's mother. Carly is fascinated with Mary and wants to be a star herself. It is a beautiful love story that is about the sacrifice that it takes to be in love, and the sacrifices that the protagonist must make in order to find her true love. She must learn to respect herself, her friends, and Mary, and she must learn to be her own person. Carly learns to accept Mary for who she is, and she learns to live her life and love without needing to be the center of attention. She learns to live a life and be herself. There is no clear hero in this film, no strong character, no strong action. It is a simple story about a woman who becomes an actress and a human being. The film is a bit slow, but you learn to appreciate it as it goes along. It is really very touching and an inspiring film. In my opinion, it is the most realistic film ever made. I truly hope this film gets made available on DVD so that more people will see it. It is one of the most beautiful films I have ever seen, and it will remain one of my all-time favorite movies.

This film is a masterpiece and, I would say, one of the best films ever made. The acting, editing, directing, and special effects are all superb. The performances of Mark Ruffalo, Naomi Watts, and Ewan McGregor are all brilliant and the film is filled with unforgettable scenes. This is a truly inspirational and emotional film. It is great to see how a true talent can be recognized for the work that they do. This film is also great for people who are old enough to remember the time when movies were a lot more interesting and therefore made the viewers feel more important to the world around them. The acting of Mark Ruffalo is amazing. He is not only a brilliant actor, but also a brilliant actor. The editing is amazing. The film also has great editing. The actors all do a great job. I don't have any complaints about the acting, editing, or special effects. It is all brilliant. If you haven't seen this film, go watch it right now.

I've been following this movie for months, and it's really hard not to get sucked in. It's a great, great movie. It's filled with amazing moments. The chemistry between Anne Hathaway and Russell Crowe is the stuff of legends. Crowe is fantastic as well, but I think Hathaway steals the show. I can't imagine anyone else as Hathaway's "caretaker" - and I love Hathaway. She's so talented, and this movie is a testament to that. It's a movie that I can't get out of my head, and I've seen it so many times that I've lost count. It's that good. It's that well done. It's that emotional. I can't recommend this movie enough. If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend you do. You won't be disappointed.

When I first saw this movie, I thought it was going to be a movie I would never forget. I was wrong. I have seen this movie about 4 times since then. The way it was shot was so well done. The actors played their roles so well, I can't believe I didn't know these people. The people that played the roles were great. I thought that the people in the movie were wonderful. I would like to say that I thought the ending was very moving and touching. I thought the actors played their parts very well. I think it was a great movie, but it was the best movie I have ever seen. It had great music, great scenery, great acting, and a wonderful ending. I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to watch a movie that is good and feels good. I would recommend this movie to anyone.

I am shocked at all the negative reviews for this film. I am a huge fan of the band. They are an excellent group of musicians, and I've been a fan since they were at the height of their popularity. The film is a wonderful celebration of their talent, their work ethic and the inspiration they gave to countless people. The film is the story of a group of friends who started out as complete strangers, and who became the greatest thing that ever happened to them. They all grew up together, and became friends and peers. The music, the attitude, the writing and the playing are all perfectly performed. I was so moved by the way the band expressed themselves on stage. It's a very simple story, but one that is extremely inspirational. I loved this film, and I'm so glad it was made. It is a great movie, and I am proud to have been a part of it.

I have never read the book, and have only seen the film, but I loved it. The characters are really well written, and the story is very interesting and dramatic. I really liked it! I've never seen a film that was as emotional as this one. I've never seen a film that made me feel this way. I love how the story is told, and I've always liked how the film-makers used this medium to tell a story. I think this is the best movie I have seen in a while. It was very emotional, and I think the story was very good, and I liked how the actors portrayed the characters. It was very realistic, and I think that is the best thing about the film. I think that the actors were really good, and I think the film was very good. I have seen this film twice now, and I'm not bored with it. I don't think that I have ever felt so much emotion from a film. I think it's great! I can't wait to see it again. I think it is going to be one of the most emotional films I've ever seen!

The movie is a pretty good movie. The acting is good and the story is very well told. The movie does not take itself too seriously and it's a very good movie for people who want to watch a movie with a story and good acting. I liked it and I recommend it to everyone. The movie has a lot of good things and it's a good movie. The movie is a good movie. It's a good movie.

It is my opinion that this is a great movie. The characters are so well developed that I think the characters are more like real people. In real life, the characters are not as developed. The story is just so wonderful and is so great. It makes you laugh and cry and makes you feel for the characters. It is a wonderful movie to watch and has a great message. I give it a 10 out of 10.

It is not easy to sit through this movie. The director is just like a magician. His show is pure magic. He starts off with a quick introduction of the characters, and then does a fast paced montage of the story. The characters are really well drawn and you have to see them in person to get the full effect. You really have to care about them. I found myself crying throughout the movie. The story itself is really quite interesting. It's based on the real life story of a married couple who are moving to an unnamed town to try to make it in America. They find that they have an uncanny resemblance to each other, and it's not just the clothes, the hairstyle, the car they drive. Their personalities and personalities are the same. It's really quite interesting. The director is able to portray the same emotions in different ways. He does it in a way that doesn't make you uncomfortable, but just makes you feel good. He does a good job of showing you how he really feels about his characters, and how he really felt about the real life story. There are scenes that are really funny, and there are scenes that are really sad. Some scenes are really sad, and some scenes are really funny. The movie also has some really touching moments. The movie is very sad, and I think it was a good choice to have the director portray the sadness in such a way. The movie has a nice pace, and the movie is really long. It's a really long movie, and it really feels like it could be longer, but it never gets too long. It's a good movie to watch when you're sad, or when you just want to watch a good movie to cheer you up. It's definitely a good movie to watch if you're feeling down, or if you just want to watch a good movie to cheer you up.

I am a big fan of movie. I love a good story. I always like when a movie is good. I've seen so many bad movies. I always look forward to good movies. I am a big fan of Stephen Chbosky, of The Little Mermaid, and I have to admit that he is very talented. I thought this was a great movie. The music and the actors were great. The humor and the story was perfect. I think the music was amazing. I really like the song "What is Love" from this movie. I think the soundtrack is great. It was wonderful. The story is a little hard to follow at first, but I think that is okay. I think it will be a great movie. It is funny. I recommend this movie to everyone. It is really good.

I first saw this film when I was 12 and I loved it. I'm not sure I can explain how I felt. It's not a film I'd recommend to people, but I did love it. I think the acting was excellent, the characters were interesting and the story was interesting. It's not a film I'd recommend to people but I loved it. I think it's one of the best films of the year. 10/10

This movie is a wonderful depiction of life in the mid-1980's. It was a time when the homeless and mentally ill lived with people they knew, and for a few of them, it was the only chance for them to get back on their feet. I love the way they tell this story of how a family of homeless people formed, and how they have been able to rebuild their lives after all the destruction they suffered from those who took advantage of them. The acting was excellent. I was really impressed with Steve Zahn, who played the character he played in "The Big Lebowski". I really felt his character was human, not a caricature. Also, I loved the music and the way it was shown. The soundtrack was a nice touch. Overall, I really enjoyed the movie, and I am really looking forward to seeing it again.

I was moved to tears by this movie. My husband and I had the opportunity to see it together. We both loved it. I think it is just the best movie of the year. The stories that are told and the emotions that the characters go through are so powerful. I was surprised that it was nominated for the Oscar. The acting, story, and direction are all superb. I hope it wins. My husband and I will be watching it over and over again.

I'm a die-hard fan of British cinema and this film is a testament to that. Sure, you've seen the Lord of the Rings trilogy and "The Lord of the Rings", but this is as good as the three. It's a real revelation to see what a "real" film should be like. It's a testament to the director's vision that he manages to have the light of this story shine from the screen. The film is beautifully shot, with a lot of colors and not a lot of black and white. A small price to pay for a big cast. The performances are great, especially Toby Jones as the homeless drug addict who finds his way to life. The cinematography, the score and the editing is all in the right places. I really appreciate the attempt to keep the story straight, while using the words of the English writer(s) and that's rare in movies these days. You see this happen a lot in films, but rarely do they do it with such a clear, professional approach. The result is a film that's exciting and really makes you feel what the main character is feeling. As with all great movies, the main character and his relationships are what really matters, and you don't see that in this movie. This is a movie that you watch and can't wait for the DVD to come out.

This movie is a fantastic movie that I would love to see more of. The plot is a bit confusing but overall it is a great movie and I would recommend this movie to anyone who has an interest in history, as well as a love of the world's oldest profession.

The only reason this movie has not received a 10 from me is that I would have to give it a 10 to an audience that has not seen the original, and not have any respect for the work of any of the people involved. This movie is so funny and so sweet and so much more than just a movie. I have watched it 5 times, and will continue to do so. The humor is great, and the acting is spot on. If you are in the mood for a fun and funny movie, I highly recommend this movie. If you are looking for a story with a happy ending, you will be disappointed. This movie is about love and family and love and family and family. The actors in this movie are great. I don't want to give anything away, but if you have not seen it, do yourself a favor and go see it. You will not be disappointed.

This film was beautifully done. The cinematography and editing were excellent. The acting was superb. The performances were believable, strong, and poignant. This film has so much going for it. The characters are developed beautifully and the story is true to life. This film is a wonderful representation of life and how it is truly wonderful. I truly felt for the characters in this film. I can't say enough about how good this film was. It really is a wonderful film. The best film of all time!

My favorite character is Jami Gertz, and this movie is just a wonderful tribute to her. As a child, I would see her in her work, and would always want to be like her. I'm glad she's getting recognition for her work and contributions. I wish her all the luck in the world. I also like the movie for the wonderful voice of Gertz's character, and her singing of "If I Fell in Love with You".

I saw this movie for the first time recently. I was captivated from the start and kept watching, hoping that I would never stop. The character of Pauline was such a wonderful role and it really made me understand what it is like to be a woman. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone. It is a story that everyone should see.

I have to admit that I was not aware of this film until my friend told me about it. I was hooked from the start and watched it a few times. I do not normally watch movies that much, but I can't imagine a better way to end the year than to watch this movie. It's an experience to watch something so profound. The actors are outstanding and the story is a work of art. I recommend this movie to everyone and anyone.

The film is very good. It's a great love story and tells a lot of things we are not usually taught. The cast is great and the whole cast is outstanding. The plot is the best, as it is not overdone. The plot is very interesting. It is not confusing at all. It is interesting and entertaining, as it is not boring at all. The movie also has a great humor to it, as it is not just serious, but it is very funny. This is a great movie, and it is a must see for all those who want to know more about love, life, friendship, love, family, happiness, all these things, but it is not just a love story. This is a great movie, and you should see it.

The director of this film has the ability to make you feel like you are a part of the story. This is a film that will make you laugh, cry and feel as if you are a part of the story. The actors were great. They all put a lot of emotion into their performances and it was very believable. The story is great and you can tell that the director had a lot of fun making this film. The film is very interesting and has a great message. I highly recommend this film to anyone who likes a good story and a great film.

When I first heard about this film I was immediately excited. I thought it would be a great way to spend a couple hours, and I'm glad I did. The film is about the life of Van Morrison, who was a singer, songwriter and a multi-instrumentalist, and he was a very prolific artist. He was a very prolific person. The film follows his life, and how he came to be in the hospital, and how he got into his rock band. I liked the way the film was told. It was slow, and it was very well done. I thought it was a great film, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who likes rock and roll.

As someone who has spent the past few years immersed in the world of film, this is a film that I will be seeing over and over again. The writing, directing, acting, and cinematography are all superb. The acting of the four main characters is spot on. The film is a timeless look at the lives of those who make up the media, and how the media and the industry have impacted their lives. It's a film that you can watch over and over again and never get bored of. The story is rich and the writing and direction are spot on. You can't help but feel like you know the characters, and you understand their feelings. It's very hard to do, but the writers and the actors really did a phenomenal job. If you haven't seen this film yet, go out and buy it, you won't regret it.

Let's face it. If you liked any of the above films, you will love this film. I have seen it three times now and I am still laughing out loud. It is the kind of movie that I can watch over and over and never get tired of. My favorite scene was the scene where the black limousine driver asked what "they" would like. "A bag of hot dogs and a Pepsi", she responded. And then the black limousine driver, who was very obviously black, responds with "And what would you like?" and proceeds to order both "hot dogs and a Pepsi" while the black driver, obviously a Mexican, responds "And what would you like?" I also loved the scene where the Mexican was asking the black driver why he did not just say "I am a Mexican" and the driver responds "You don't speak Spanish" and the Mexican responds "No. I'm a Mexican." This scene is one of the best scenes in the entire movie. I wish that some of the other actors could have been in the movie but, I guess it was their way to get recognition and to show they did not need the money. I would have preferred to have seen Danny DeVito, for example, and Ben Affleck, for example, play the role of the Mexican and to have been more authentic. All in all, a great movie. You will laugh, you will cry and you will be moved. Go see it!

I really do not know how to begin to describe how beautifully and heart-breakingly this movie makes you feel. The story of a small, oppressed, Asian woman in the 1950's who attempts to become an American film star, but is caught in a class system that does not recognize her talents and denies her the ability to fully enjoy her life and love. The story is told in the beautiful cinematography of Uwe Boll, who also plays the lead role. The wonderful sound and music of Danny Elfman add to the scene. The actors are so believable and believable, you can't help but feel for them and the moment they are on screen. You feel the real impact of their scenes and the love and happiness that they feel, as they strive to take their life back. There are no big special effects to be seen here. There is a remarkable story and great acting. I can't recommend this movie enough. It truly shows how the freedom and love and happiness that Asian women have had all their lives has been ignored, denied, and lied to by the system. They deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. It is one of the best movies I have ever seen. I have it on video, and I plan to watch it every year that it is out. If you haven't seen this movie yet, go out and rent it today!

One of the best movies I have ever seen! This movie has to be one of my favorites. The cast is amazing, the story is amazing, and the plot is incredible. This movie is more of a comedy than a drama. I cannot imagine this movie not being a hit. It will have a long lasting impact on people and shows that everyone in this world can be someone they are not. There are a lot of comedies out there that just try to make fun of everything. This movie is not trying to be funny, but is instead just trying to show the viewers the true feelings of what is going on in their life and what they can do to help it go right.

I can't say enough good things about this movie. I went into the movie theater with no expectations but what the heck. I was impressed and so were most of the audience. The movie was so much more than just a chick flick. It's a real movie with some great acting. The story is told in such a way that is beautiful and full of humor. The acting is great, the directing is wonderful, and the music is just amazing. I can't wait to see this movie again. I hope to see it again in the future.

this movie is one of the most important movies of all times. i love how the film deals with the life of a little girl with special needs. the movie touches on the most important topics of life, love, life, and death. the film is very interesting, it shows how a little girl gets to know her mother, and how that mother's death impacts her life. the story is very touching, but it is not a sad story, and the movie is very funny. its a very nice movie and it deserves all the praise it gets. i give this movie a 10/10.
