Among Giants MPEG: CLICK HERE| “It’s
a deeper, richer film (than The Full Monty)...and a rare contemporary
love story that works. Featuring superb performances, especially from
Pete Postlethwaite in his first romantic role, it is a moving, funny
story of people wrestling with the complexities of affairs of the
heart.” Hollywood Reporter “Another winning film....an irresistible love story.... Postlethwaite (is) a romantic leading man of unexpected effectiveness.” Los Angeles Times “Finely tuned performances by Postlethwaite and Griffiths... First time director...Miller displays a gift for nuanced observation. The result is something to savour.” Time Out NY “One of last year’s best British movies. . . the performances are uniformly good, the locations are carefully chosen, the picture looks a treat.” Philip French, Observer |
