Amazing moments of bitter sweetness and a 180° turn around for Richard E Grant from Withnail and the frankly strange How to get ahead in Advertising made this memorable.
With a winning story of a widower, a baby, and an American girl this is much better than routine storyline - it has a very good support cast with Judi Dench, Ian McKellen, and the wonderful Eileen Aitkens who should have become a household name as Dame Dench as done.
Scene after scene that are all memorable and some excellent comedy moments this is truly a heartwarming film and a real treasure.
Not just a comedy it tackles wider issues like grief with alacrity and Samantha Mathis and Grant have the right chemistry.
If you've never seen it I would recommend it, and if you have seen it it's worth seeing again: it holds up very well.
