i think i be recommend this film by the lady in the shop i be hire it from . for once she be bang on . what a superb film . first of all i be convince james mcavoy and romola garai be irish so convince be their accent while and by half way through the film i be utterly convinced steven robertson be a disabled actor and pretty sure james mcavoy be also . when i watch the special feature on the dvd and saw both actor in their normal guise and to say i be blow away would be an understatement . i can remember all the acclaim dustin hoffmann get back in the 80 for his portrayal of autism in the film rain man quite frankly ( in my opinion of course . ) steven robertson performance or portrayal blow dustin hoffmann right out of the water and he deserve recognition a such . all in all one of the great portrayal of human friendship or love or relationships ever and it be make in britain or ireland with home grown actor stick that in yer pipe and smoke it hollywood .
