It's not been a year or two since I liked Judi Dench, for her being an excellent excellent actress, there's no doubt, not even a tiny tiny doubt, about it, but this film still made me re-examine her, and at the same time re-examine her To myself, the problem of being stereotyped therefore missing so much excitement brought alone by what I took (am taking) for granted.

The singing and dancing in the film is not my favorite dish, that's for sure, but the choice of subject matter is really different. The wealthy widow who lost her husband bought the theater (Sorry for the British Spelling) for killing time and racked her brains for business, which experienced different hardships and finally rose to a certain level. It seems that the old-fashioned plot is outstandingly amuzing.

Will Young, a gay handsome guy, also showed his 'face', and contributed his round buttocks in a short shot. The neutral voice makes it feel like it really suits the movie.

Not a movie on my favorite list, but also one of the rare good movies in recent times.
