This 'Day in the life of' film seems to have drawn more pretentious gobbledegook comments since 'Citizen Kane'. 'The Winter Guest' is a quiet little film that weaves a group of ordinary people's lives through a cold wintry atmosphere. The acting is as to be expected from this type of British Film, in other words, good. It is to be enjoyed as a diversion from reality, not as some hidden, cryptic wonderland as some would put forward. Films are for entertainment, let us stop trying to make some sort of scientific religion out of every film that is not purely a vehicle for sex or violence.
