Not being a big fan of W H Macey I approached this film with trepidation but found simply stunning performances from Mr Macey and Dame Mirren. The whole ensemble cast also added to the rare watchability of this film. Yes, it is slushy and contrived in places but shows great courage coming from severe adversity. The premise revolves around the story of a cerebal palsy sufferer trying to make his way in the harsh realities of the past decades in the USA when , like most countries, disabilities of the kind shown in this film were treated with a almost plague like attitude. The film is warm and funny but also tremendously sad especially as our hero gets older. Take the time to indulge in this film and feel that perhaps your life is not so bad after all.
