marvellous, very moving film

This film was very moving and emotional and had me glued to the television set. Julie Walters character was really funny and, although the language was bad, she manages to get away with it. Paul Reiser is a marvellous actor and is very good in this film , he manages to mix his 'posh' lifestyle with his birth mothers lifestyle very well. I also loved the scene where Frank has left his wife and they are all sitting down to a meal and the wife bursts in. In all, it was great!

We all talked about this film in work for days afterwards and I hope it gets released on video soon as it deserves it
