Since the genre of movies I am inclined with the most seems to have hit a rut that it is now stuck in (horror), my shift is moving more towards those movies that involve some sort of quest for economic prowess and financial freedom, with the nitty-gritty being displayed …

I watched this film recently on DVD, mainly because it’s British and I love British film, but also because it stars Rowan Atkinson and Kristin Scott Thomas, both brilliant actors. Rowan Atkinson plays a vicar (again) and is very believable in the part, showing no Mr Bean style goofiness …
