Review of 84 Charing Cross Road (1987) by Janz D — 23 Sep 2009
An unassuming, unpretentious look at communication and unfulfilled romance, with nuanced performances by Bancroft, Hopkins and Dench. What might appear as a "You've Got Mail" for the middle-aged turns out to be a thoughtful, well-performed film that does not pretend to be more than what it is -- a gentle relationship between two misplaced humans with an ocean in between.
RATING: B+.
