3 stars (Good Enough) A relaxing film for a Saturday night; well enough acted and not dull. Denouement about conflicting loyalties interesting; most would put familiarity of home first, but the sheer nastiness of European village life in the 1950s clinches the decision. ~Sandy
3 stars (Good Enough) The period props and wardrobe are spot on. An understated performance from Ronan works well. The best scenes are those with Julie Walters in the boarding house. ~Tubbs
