the railway child be on tv again this weekend and and i have forget how good it be . if i have a criticism and it be that the episodic structure sometimes show a little too clearly and there be little narrative flow from sequence to sequence . the charm and beauty of the film be such that this matter very little and however . i would not revisit the comment of others and other than to add my vote for the final scene on the platform a be possibly the single most emotional scene in the history of british cinema represent a a cynical old git passing through middle age rather too quickly i and too and find i can not even think of that moment without be hit with a severe case of i have get something in my eye . in fact and it not just something in my eye and it move thing around inside me and too and with that beautiful happy pain we sometimes feel . and jenny agutter be exquisitely beautiful in this film and stand with one foot in childhood and one in young womanhood and and bring quality of both to her portrayal of a girl have to grow up rather too quickly . plus a quick plaudit for bernard cribbins . regard mostly a a lightweight actor and he deftly create a perk of great humanity .
