A beautiful movie in several ways. Anna Friel as Maureen is lovely to watch as her past and background develop. Her daughter, played by Tallulah Pitt-Brown, is charming and nearly steals the show in many of her appearances.
But the real star is the village of Ballywood, which exudes old-Irish charm ... as it eases into the 21st century. Ireland of today is not the third world country of last century. As the townspeople accept and embrace Eddie Griffin's character, their personality unfolds.
Great music, scenery, and characterizations round out an enjoyable movie.
