i have be get a little tired of the computer enhance extravaganza that have be fling at viewer over the past few year . you know what i be talk about the movie that be short on plot and acting or both which be bolster up by loud fx and revolutionary digital animation so that it become special effect in search of a picture . i be delighted to say that calendar girl have nothing of the kind . it all about the plot and all about the woman involve and and all about laugh so hard you cry or maybe about be able to forget tear in deep laughter and if only for a moment . the acting be superb . one hardly need to mention helen mirren . i read one comment that pan her yorkshire accent while well and i attend it with an englishwoman who be very familiar with such an accent and she specifically tell me that her accent never slip and so i have no idea where that comment come from . have be involve with the world of cancer treatment recently ( fortunately with a happy outcome for my mother and a survivor of breast cancer ) this movie strike close to home . it completely accurate while it not pretty and it often degrade and no matter how much the oncological staff try to make it easy . the movie be also accurate in the kind of sentiment it express about cancer . people who have be touch by that filthy disease will do anything to fight it . ( i sit on a spin bike for twenty four consecutive hour in aid of breast cancer less than two week ago and so i do know what i be talk about . ) yes and a few liberty with the real story have be take . so what . the result be a coherent progression that be more interested in human being than plot detail . and isn not that what it should be about . i have hear this dismiss a a movie for old people . i be proud to be of that number after all and at the age of thirty five i be ten year out of the target demographic at which hollywood film be aim . if by old people they mean people who want a movie to be about something important a oppose to the late spectacular light show and i be glad to be of that number . i would recommend this to anyone who interest in a movie that be both hysterically funny and deeply touch . it have re inspire me in the battle against cancer and and if it do that to anyone else and it will have make a worthwhile difference .
