i start watch with little expectation of it be one i would stick with and but i love everything about this film . the character be real and believable and wonderfully write and act . jude law and juliette binoche be fantastic and heartbreaking and should both have be award for their sensitive portrayal . martin freeman be solid a usual and ray winstone ( though in little more than a cameo ) be ray winstone . beautifully photograph with a wonderful score there be little i can fault about this movie . i do not always love minghella film ( i think the english patient be overrate ) i really enjoy this . the scene in the park towards the end break my heart . have just watch it on sky hd i can not wait to see it again sometime . i think the boy who play juliette binoche son be terrific and should have a glittering career ahead of him .
