Delightful, slightly quirky, an excellent little British movie. Superb Judi Dench, as always. She is a complete gem, and otstanding actress.
The story of two sisters who saved a stranger, and the stranger who stole their hearts.
It's 1936, and two sisters, Janet and Ursula Widdington (Maggie Smith and Judi Dench), are at their beach house in Cornwall for some rest and relaxation.
But their idyll is interrupted when they chance upon a mystery man awash on the beach and decide to nurse him back to health. Turns out he's Andrea (Daniel Bruhl), a violinist who was bound for America when his ship encountered trouble. Before long, he takes the quiet fishing village by storm.
