3 stars (Good Enough) Well acted and amusing, but with an irritatingly inconclusive ending (though perhaps it's just that I prefer no loose ends!) ~oldgirl

5 stars (Exceptional) Very gentle & subtle; so subtle that the end is inferred rather than shown! Very well-acted and a great script. I loved it! ~Anon
