Richard Eyre’s latest is a star-studded adaptation of Alan Bennet’s heartwarming and profoundly moving story about a geriatric ward threatened with closure.
By turns wildly funny and deeply human, this tender and timely story is a tribute to the marginalised, and a celebration of those that care for us.
‘We’re here from your first cry, to your last breath. We are love itself.’
“A-listers are tended to by formidable nurse Jennifer Saunders in Richard Eyre’s adaptation of the 2018 play about a struggling geriatric hospital”
The Guardian
“It’s a film based on a play by Alan Bennett. So there’s already a reason to see it. It’s directed by Richard Eyre. There’s another reason. Starring the likes of Judi Dench and Derek Jacobi – two more good reasons. And I’m in it. Meh! ”
