Review of Saving Grace (2000) by James H — 27 Feb 2010
Quite a charming film, filled with whimsical and topical humor, but doesnt quite reach deeper than that. This film has a very heartwarming story that makes it very nice to watch. Unoffensive all around and I didn't find myself being put off by any of the characters or themes in the film because everyone is so dang nice.
Very beautifully set too! If I didn't know it was set in England, I would say it was in Tolkien's "Shire" or something, and I think this film used that wonderfully. Because of that, it didn't take much art direction for this film to be asthetically sound, and when mixed with the very nice towns people dancing around without a care in the world (and very high) this film almost gives me a sense of Utopia or something.
I think it's for that reason that I liked this film so much, but certainly the film could have been 30 minutes longer or so and followed other subplots a bit more. All in all a delightful film.
