Like slipping into a hot bath with a good book

Rating: 8/10 (29 March 2002)

Warming and sentimental. A unique script brought to life by some wonderful acting.
The script is full of lines you want to be able to remember and quote.
Certainly not a flawless film as some people have commented but ironically it is the flawed characters which make the film work so brilliantly.
I name this film when trying to identify my viewing preferences to others. It's on that short list of films that I can happily watch again and again.
