Having quickly read the book last week before seeing this film I expected it to be the same BUT this film was really just one chapter from the brilliant book. I also recommend you read the book. What a fantastic interesting life this woman has lead.
How refreshing to watch such great actors and the storyline kept us wanting more.
Well done.
Oscars please for this film.

Really enjoyed this film. Poignant, thought-provoking, believable story line, great casting and acting.
Another British triumph - one to treasure. Don't miss it - British films are few and far between and are never shown for long enough! Shame it's not showing in very many Odeons.
