Stranded (2002 TV Movie)

A Must See

[9/10 · 3 July 2002]

A film for all the family. The Sets are incredible with a fine cast to grace them especially the young Jacob (Charlie Lucas)who is a star in the making. The story is close to the original but with the help of modern technology the special affects stand out.

Tea with Mussolini (1999)

Feel good movie of the year

[10/10 · 24 May 1999]

I Had the great pleasure of seeing this film at the royal premiere in London. Too many people have gone to see this film expecting the life of Franco or expecting a comedy. I would recommend to any new viewers to see the film with an open mind and just enjoy the fine acting,costume and scenery.Like many others, I think that Maggie Smith was outstanding and deserves any gong that comes her way. The young Lucca (Charlie Lucas) also stood out in a formidable line up of actors. It is a shame that this film has to compete with so many other periodical dramas as I am sure it would otherwise been nominated for next years oscars. This is a film that you can see over and over again unless you're fletch who probably prefers listening to old culture club records.
