Summary: A touching story
Comment: This film features Judi Dench and Maggie Smith at their best. This is a touching and sad story of two sisters whose quiet and ordered world is set reeling by the arrival of a young stranger when he is washed up on the beach near their lonely cottage.
During the film we get to meet many of the neighbors and friends in the area, and experience the anxiety which the boy and another newly-arrived girl engender in the inhabitants of this pre-World War II Cornish village.
The setting for the story is beautiful, and the emotional scenes are well balanced by some lively humor. The film ends with some vital questions left unanswered, such as where did the lad come from, why was he washed up, why was he going to the USA, etc. However, despite this, the film is exceptional and charming and will be loved by anyone who enjoys period British drama.

Summary: Good Movie
Comment: I really bought this movie because it is filmed on location in Cornwall, one of my favorite places on earth. It turned out to be an interesting story with great acting. (No suprise from Judy Densch, of course.) It is a keeper!

Summary: Ladies
Comment: This had good actors in it, but the sound seemed garbled, so it was hard to understand the dialogue.

Summary: soft-hued lavender...
Comment: This is for those who enjoy the works of Maggie Smith and Judi Dench. Daniel Bruhl doesn't harm your eyes either. The story is joyously light but deep, the characters of Maggie Smith and Judi Dench are superbly played. It's like sibling rivalry, but not sibling rivalry. It's jealousy,
but not jealousy. Ah, life! So simple and complicate. I guess that's why life is beautiful...like lavenders swaying by the wind.
And the music throughout! Gorgeously played by Joshua Bell, and it decorated this movie and made me run to the record shop to get the cd after I've finished watching this underrated gem.
A warning though, this is a film for those who loves "talkie" romance drama genre...of the old kind(pun not intended!).
Enjoy!!!
