Timothy Spall was magnificent in this well-paced story that had the confidence in itself to take its time. Direction and writing was as good as you'll see, and the supporting cast of characters delivered. I was in tears, no harm in admitting it, as we saw humanity at its finest. Are you ready? A character was asked; a line delivered with love. And the placing of a framed photograph was just perfect, as was the uncovering of an old toy. Social media makes its appearance, but not in any way that's intrusive. I had no idea what to expect when watching this, but it was something so beautiful it could have been a picture painted by Turner.
