    Beautiful, warm, witty, smart, enjoyable film
    Darkly comic, profoundly smart, uniquely original, supremely relatable (for me, at least) and beautifully shot. This is British filmmaking at its finest. I have been a huge fan of Haider Zafar's cinematography for years so had high hopes for this and my expectations were exceeded. Great script, quality acting and, unsurprisingly, it looks stunning. Can't wait to see Zafar behind the camera and at the helm again very soon.
