magic isn not too strong a word for the spell this film weave . you find yourself relaxing and and see others in a more benevolent light . any movie that have that civilize an effect on viewer deserves serious attention . seldom be we soak in beauty like this . a if that weren not enough and it funny . performance be and without exception and extraordinary and but special mention must be make of the miraculous miranda richardson and and the superb josie walker both open like rose . why isnt this film on dvd . it deserve to live forever .
