Philomena

This is one of the sweetest movies I have watched this year. The major reason why I considered watching it was the love I have for Judi Dench, and as usual she didn’t disappoint me at all.

Being one of the most talented actresses of her generation, the best investment made by the producers of this movie is to make her the leading character. She did the best job in terms of taking the persona of the old lady that she has done so often successfully, and executed her role to perfection.

This is generally a really funny movie that quickly becomes a heartbreaking one. It was hard to predict the twists in the movie, but I am delighted with the output overall.
