I don't have anything terribly deep to say here other than that I absolutely loved this movie when I saw it in the theater at age 11, but having re-watched it now at 29 I don't like it as much. The film is a series of sometimes funny, sometimes touching, sometimes sad vignettes, but there's no "story" to it... it seems to be 100% character study and no plot. In fact, most of the characters show little or no change at all throughout the movie. While it does have some entertaining and sweet moments, in general I'd say it's not the amazing film I thought it was when I was a kid. Perhaps I'd appreciate it more if I was English.
