First i must say i am not the biggest fan of Hugh Grant acting. I find him good in Love, Actually... Nothing Hill and recently in The Man from U.N.C.L.E... what i have to say is that we finally have a serious actor here. An actor that seems to love what he is doing again. Like the old days when he start in the UKs.
This movie is all about art, literature but explain not in a boring way but in a smart and funny way. Our protagonist, Hugh Grant is a loner, alcoholic, he is divorced and has not spoke to his son since a year.
Here, he start by developing a romance with a young student about 20 years old (yeah he is really 50+) but really he don't look like a 50 years old man. I had to check here in IMDb because i was thinking he was like 43-44. So, his romance start and secretly, but soon many will knows and it won't help our ''anti-hero''.
He need that ''kick in the arse'' to get back on track on his life, and he start to enjoy what he is doing. I love where they go with that film and i also love the non-happy ending Hollywood like to give to us. Sure, it is more of an independent film but it is very professional and i'm impressed also by the acting of Marisa Tomei and J.K. Simmons. Recommended.
