A Pleasant Surprise., 31 May 2002
8/10
Author: Sebastian Carr from London, England

I saw this film in Paris, on a wet day when I'd seen almost every other film. The local listings guide described it as an English film, it is, however, a Welsh film. Not just a Welsh film, but a Welsh film in Welsh. When I realized I would be watching a film in Welsh with French sub-titles I nearly walked out. Luckily I didn't. It is a completely charming tale of a projectionist and an usherette's scheme to save a local cinema. A great little film.
