Wifey decided we'd go to the cinema last night, didn't know anything about the film except it had been nominated for quite a few BAFTAs.
I've never come out of a cinema so depressed in all my life!!
When This Mortal Coil started though, the goosebumps went right from the top of my head down to my toes.

Anyone else seen it? or planning to see it?

A bit!
I'd say it was good - 'wonderful' is pushing it, as it did have flaws.

The wife read the book and liked it, so we'll probably go and watch it soon.

Just found this interview with the director, which may explain things to those interested.
BTW, there's a bit of a spoiler (question about Justice) which I'd avoid before seeing the film.

Saw it a while ago. Good movie. Bit sad, but good story.
