WHY BOOK THIS FILM? For all the reasons given below.
"A terrifically warm, generous film." The Guardian
"It is a drama with three-dimensional people, facing three-dimensional problems and dealing with them... I absolutely loved it." Mark Kermode
"There's a hint of repetition in the mid-section and a schmaltzy third act courtroom scene. But all flaws are overcome by Aramayo's technically precise and heart-rending turn. It's astonishing." The Times
"Just lovely. Tourette syndrome has not been afforded its cinematic dues, but
what an affable, funny character to explore it with in John Davidson -- and what
a performance from Robert Aramayo." Empire
