Understated, poignant, funny, an absolutely wonderful film that engages from the start and never waivers. The acting is faultless as is the direction. The three sisters played by Victoria Hamilton, Julie Walters, and Joanne Whalley are completely convincing as sisters, particularly Whallet who's interaction with her mother's ghost (Patricia Hodge) is well handled. I thought is was marvellous;it can bear repeated watching which, in my book ,is the sign of a good film. Sadly so many contemporary films fail that simple test. It would benefit from much wider exposure. If you get the chance and you like subtle, funny and English films then this is a must see.
