Ignore previous review ' a jolly good film for the ladies' - please!! Totally irrelvant as to what sex you are in order to enjoy this film. Its beautifully filmed and completely takes you into the hustle and bustle that is Central Station. Tale of a young boy and an older, bitter woman thrown together and a 'coming of age' for them both. Highlights things we take for granted like literacy, social services etc. If you enjoy this film and havent seen Cinema Paradiso - why not?!
