Re: God's own country

I really enjoyed this. the really bleak spring scenes were so crisp and windblown i was totally immersed i felt chilly. Incrediblely beautiful scenes (yes, even the beatle - which i hate) full of thoughful pauses to admire the landscape. to me, as an outsider to that life and landscape, it was a rev...

Re: Latecomers to screenings and other cinema nuisances
