Jake and Tina are living a lavish life in a top London Hotel, only they are living way beyond their means, their only asset, Tina's limited edition Henry Moore figurine. Its disappearance coincides with new maid Jenny, who took a shine to it.
I understand why it has a relatively low score, and I don't think anyone could argue it has a massive appeal, but it has a definite appeal.
It's a real fusion of styles, yes it's a drama, but it's a comedy, it's a romance, it definitely crosses the genres.
Jake and Tina are two very spoiled adult children, they have no respect for one another, no regard for one another, I don't even think they like eachother, you have to wonder how on Earth they got together.
Delightful performances from the leading stars, John Malkovich and a radiant Andie MacDowell are both terrific, she edges it for me, Bill Patterson and Joss Ackland are both quite wonderful.
Not quite an underrated gem, but definitely well worth seeing.
7/10.
