FANTASTIC movie about a May-December romance! Normally I would say it's a bit of a chick-flick, but my husband (who hates that sort of stuff) enjoyed this movie as well.

This production has all the best qualties of a BBC show- a good plot, well scripted and acted. Defintely, a story which remains with your thoughts after it ends. Highle recommend.
