Lovely entertainment, 8 November 1999
Author: B. Michael Beck (bms.beck@bx.logicnet.ro) from Bucharest, Romania

Noteworthy in the first place because of Jessica Tandy, a great actress. Because her acting is great also in this film, she looks so young and lively at 85, because it is her last film. But noteworthy also because of the rest of the cast, all of them credible and well-played. And certainly also noteworthy because of the script. It moves so effortlessly from light to heavy, from drama, to adventure, to comedy, and so equally effortlessly weaves in small subplots and sidelines. The writers really should have gotten top notch assignments after this great performance. Sad to see they didn't really. Also soundtrack fits very nicely (esp. the Brahms).

I saw the film on TV in Romania, on a channel usually aimed at the housewives taste. The film deserves much better than that.
