Before my title gets attacked I know it was based on a true story so it is not necessarily nonsense but it was really. However it was well done nonsense with a sense of style. Some of the dialogue was a bit clunky at times and the characters spoke as if they were reading something they had pre-written as against the way someone real would really talk to their siblings. The production values were high and some parts of it were genuinely moving. The acting was good and I enjoyed it for the well-made undemanding drama it was.

About the reviewer: arwsto

I am a slighly decaying mancunian with a love of films as well as TV programmes that take me back to my childhood. I have been an actor and writer. I appeared in an award winning amateur film and many years ago wrote a prize winning play.
