If you like films that are subtle and feel like plays (think "Doubt") then this is the film for you. The three main leads are absolutely extraordinary. It was really nice to Nighy play this kind of role.

Heartwarming. Makes you leave such an amazing feeling with her when she sailed away. Lovely film. I wish I could give 10 but then nothing could ever be perfect and that's the beauty of this world. Something has to be done always.
Like a good book, the film catches your interest with the first chapter and keeps you gripped until the end. This is a wonderfully told story, and while not always a happy one, you will still be glad you watched this one.
A film for people who are not in a hurry. Great story. Tender performances (Emily Mortimer and Bill Nighy are wonderful). A story of stubborn determination, small village power plays and unexpected allies. Great supporting cast (Young Honor Kneafsey is a stand out). Definitely a movie for book lovers. I give this film an 8 (great) out of 10. [Drama]
