Stunning, emotional debut.
A beautiful portrayal and documentary-style storytelling of the life of legendary author, Catherine Cookson. Also lovely to see her during her youth, when she was unknown; reacting to the modern-day world.
Movie is made even more poignant when you discover it was filmed in her home town of South Shields, 20 years after her death. This deserves a TV segment - a chance for people to revisit history and the challenging life of this remarkable woman.
