Finding delight

- JB, Hastings

I thoroughly enjoyed the feature on British actress Imelda Staunton (05.03.18) and totally understand why she was keen to star in Finding Your Feet. It’s so refreshing to see a lm with a decent storyline that re ects real life, particular­ly when the lives in question belong to retired people. Life doesn’t suddenly stop at 30 or 40, in fact this lm showed it all – sadness, love, fun, adventure and the need to start life over again for many people of a “certain age”. It’s a shame that some of the current crop of Hollywood scriptwrit­ers (aka explosive, CGI experts) were not in our local cinema to hear the applause and delight at the end of this very touching and human lm.
