A post WWII period piece enriched by the golden brown hues of safe yet poignant drama, romance, the love of books and the inherent allegory they foster - the hidden nooks and crannies in our lives, that store the breath of the unresolved that must be honored, or we die inside. Tightly written, beautifully acted and shot with an eye on timelessness. Recommended for fans of sweeping, life affirming literary-inspired fare.

Totally loved this movie. Simple. Feel good and heart warming from start to finish with some real tear jerking moments. Great performance by Brown-Findlay who portrayed her character with an abundance of honesty & heart.

Having been to Geurnsey only a few years ago I guessed that much of what was shown wasn't filmed there.This was a combination mystery and old fashioned transfer with an appropriate ending.Whilst not without its merits i felt that this was at least thirty minutes too long.That and the title is not likely to entice many people to watch it.Indeed i was just one of three people in the audience.

What a disappointment! I was hoping to spend a couple of hours being entertained by an interesting period comedy / drama. Instead I was confronted to the umpteenth rehashing of a story that I feel like I've seen hundreds of times, and with a plot about as believable as a unicorn steak. The meddling protagonist is fairly insufferable, and of course lurve triumphs in the end, for she leaves a brilliant future with a dashing rich fiancee, to marry instead the incredibly well spoken and erudite pig farmer. As if. Add to that that the acting is wooden and the script painfully conventional; this is the dream movie for your old auntie who votes for a populist party and thinks the world is going to the dogs. Everyone else -- give a wide berth.
