In Britain, appearing in a stage production of "The Glass Menagerie" in Lancaster, fifty-eight year old Gloria Grahame Annette Bening), far past her prime as a Hollywood actress who perfected the portrayal of the "tart" in 1940 and 1950s movies, one which earned her an Oscar, contacts her former lover, thirty-year-old struggling British actor Peter Turner (Jamie Bell), who is also appearing on-stage in his hometown of Liverpool, when she has some medical distress, which she categorizes as extreme indigestion. She contacted Peter, who did not even know she was in Britain, despite the animosity that characterized their previous meeting a few months earlier. In bringing her to stay with him in his working class parents' flat, Peter and his family immediately realize that what she is suffering from is much more serious than indigestion. As they begin to care for her in Peter respecting her wishes neither to send her to a hospital nor to contact any of her family members in the U.S., Peter struggles between his love for her and wanting to respect her wishes versus the toll caring for her on their own is taking on him and his family. In the process, flashbacks are presented in key moments in Gloria and Peter's two year relationship, they first met when she moved into the rundown flat next to his in London where she was performing in a play. Gloria's personal history is also detailed, which includes four ex-husbands, four now-grown children, and her holding onto her youth with every fiber of her being with her last ex-husband being one of her stepchildren, hence Peter not the first younger man with whom she had a relationship.

I was very skeptical of this movie. I did not really know what to expect and had not heard of it. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this movie. It was a very well done movie. The acting was superb and the characters were believable. It was a wonderful movie. It was a story about people who were very different from each other and how they overcame that difference to become very close friends. I was very moved by this movie. I hope that people will find this movie enjoyable.
I have watched the movie twice and it's a great movie. I know that this is not a movie for everyone but i think it's a great movie to watch with your kids and your friends. There are a lot of people who love this movie and they make it special. I give this movie a 10 out of 10 because it's a great movie.
A film which has been described as "A film for the ages". It is a film which I believe will remain a film for ages to come. It is one of those films which will be viewed as a classic in the future. The story is quite simple, but it is not a bad thing. The story is about a British family who has a very small amount of money to live on and the family decides to travel to Liverpool, England to buy a home. The story is told in a very straightforward way. The family travels to Liverpool and they meet the people who will help them in the purchase of the house. The characters are all quite well developed and the story is quite engaging and interesting. It is a good film. It is not a film which is going to be remembered for all time, but it is a film which is going to be remembered for a very long time.
This is one of the best films I have seen in a long time. I could watch this film again and again. The cinematography and the acting is amazing. I am really looking forward to seeing this film on DVD. I am also looking forward to the soundtrack. I am a big fan of Phil Collins and his songs and this soundtrack is amazing. If you are a fan of Phil Collins then you will love this film. If you are a fan of the film industry and want to see the best film of all time then see this film. This film is a must see for any film fan.
I watched this film on TV, and I couldn't stop crying. It was so moving and emotional. It's one of those films that you can't turn off and it will stay with you. It was beautiful. I can't stop thinking about it. The acting was superb. I can't believe that it was directed by Spike Lee. He did a wonderful job. I recommend this film to anyone who has ever felt lost or just wants to feel happy.
I saw this movie in a screening at a film festival in the UK. I was so blown away by the great story and the brilliant performances of the cast that I went home and re-watched the movie in a very similar frame of mind to when I first saw it. The film is an amazing portrayal of the life of a black male in Liverpool. I think that there are many people out there who have not had the opportunity to experience this life and I think that this film does a very good job of showing the life of a young black man growing up in Liverpool. The movie is very dark and is very sad. The story is very much a cautionary tale, but it is also very inspirational. I think that this movie is a must see for all people who love a good story and a great movie. I think that this movie is a must see for anyone who has ever been a young black male in Liverpool, or a black male in general.
I loved this movie and think it is one of the best films I have seen. I have been a fan of Judy Garland since I was little and I had never heard of this movie until I saw it on TV. It was so moving and I cried many times. I am so glad that I saw this movie and now I am reading the book. I have seen this movie four times and I love it. It is the best movie I have seen and I think it should have won the Oscar for best picture.
I've seen this movie twice now and I have to say it is the most moving film I have ever seen. I've seen it with a group of friends and we all cried during the ending. The characters are great, you can relate to them, and the acting is superb. I would recommend this film to anyone who has a friend who has experienced the loss of a loved one. I think everyone should see this film, and if you haven't seen it, you should!
This is a very good movie. A great story and a very interesting, if not emotional, character development. The young actor is great. I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to be entertained for an hour or two.
I am a huge fan of this movie. I saw it at the local film festival, and it has a great cast and a great story. I think that all the acting was great. I really enjoyed the story, and I liked the ending. I think it is a great movie. The music is great. It was a great movie. It was one of those movies that you should see at the cinema, and watch it a couple of times. It is a very good movie. I really recommend this movie. I give it a 10 out of 10.
