I'm German and just love British protections.
The acting, screenplay and plot in this film are just magnificent. Putting it simply, it's a gentle one man's journey to himself. All other characters contribute to his growth along there way - while his wife has to grapple with being left alone to cope but it has a mixed effect on her. Venting her frustration and grief by doing major house renovations, she is forced to reflect on the state of her marriage. Her character's growth is as evident as Clive's own journey. Every character is well drawn and beautifully acted.
I apologize for my substandard English but I just had to express my appreciation of this great little/big movie.
