Jack Amiel

For a romantic comedy, this film starts in rather a dramatic way and has a thread of tragedy running through it, yet I thought it was very well handled.It's not laugh-aloud funny, although there are plenty of light-hearted moments. Inevitably there's a growing romance, but it's not a passionate one - instead, it grows out of a low-key developing friendship.

Overall, we all enjoyed this very much. More thought-provoking than many films of this genre, and nicely done. The children are excellent, although it's really not a children's film, and we appreciated the clean language, the lack of anything that would rate the film higher than PG, and the positive attitude to the church.

Definitely recommended.
