Movie Reviews of The Girl in the Cafe
Movie Review: Very Moving Film
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow. This movie was not what I expected at all. What a moving film. So moving in fact, that I cried afterward, then went to the www.ONE.org website to see what I could do to stop an African child under the age of 5 from dying every 3 seconds. Both actors (Bill Nighy and Kelly MacDonald) are superb in carrying off their characters personalities. It's a love story with a bold truth to it. I will definitely be purchasing this for my personal collection and put this at the top 5 of the most touching and moving films ever.
Summary of The Girl in the Cafe
As a pop star on the comeback trail, Bill Nighy handily stole Love Actually away from his more famous co-stars. In BBC/HBO co-production The Girl in the Caf?, he takes the lead--and runs with it. Written by Richard Curtis (Notting Hill), the offbeat political-romance concerns Lawrence, a 57-year-old Londoner with a successful governmental career and nonexistent social life. One day he stops in a caf? and meets the mysterious, considerably younger Gina (Kelly Macdonald, Trainspotting). To their mutual amazement, they hit it off and agree to meet again (and yet again). Then he invites her to accompany him to the G8 Summit in Reykjav?k, where she upends his carefully ordered world in ways both wonderful and terrible. Suddenly this "man who has nothing in his life but his work" must find a way to make room for something "tender and true." With Corin Redgrave as the Prime Minister. --Kathleen C. FennessyHe's a shy civil servant (Bill Nighy Love Actually) working for the British delegation to the 2005 G8 Summit. She's an alluring young woman (Kelly McDonald Finding Neverland) he meets at a cafe - and invites her to the Summit on a whim. Together this unlikely couple might just change history.Running Time: 100 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 026359282225
