Review of An Awfully Big Adventure (1995) by Annie B — 10 Apr 2007

I like this one a lot. It has moments of great humour and great tragedy. Hugh Grant does an excellent "baddie" in this coming of age drama/comedy.

Odd but good. Alan is delightful and Hugh Grant for once plays out of character…

This movie was a little weird (I watched it only because Alan Rickman is in it), and most definately uncomfortable to watch during the sex…
