This Worm IS For Turning, 29 December 2008

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

Marilou Berry has inherited her mother's looks, build and acting talent though mum, of course, also writes and directs; maybe in time Marilou will try her hand at the other two disciplines but meantime she shows here that she can carry a movie alone. She plays Melanie, a girl working in a restaurant attached to a filling station, fine, dependable and generally all-round good egg until she decides enough is enough and allows her dark side to fight its way to the surface. We are, remember, talking comedy here so don't expect too great an about turn but one of the highlights is when Melanie handcuffs bride-to-be Fredericque Bel - about the only other person in the cast I've seen previously - already in her wedding dress, to a radiator. Actually I lied, that in itself is not a highlight, what IS is when Bel yanks the radiator off the wall and turns up in the church for the ceremony still wearing it. Pleasant, undemanding fare but Josie can be proud of her kid.
