Rating: - I can't keep "mum" about this little gem...
Nanny McPhee and Mary Poppins meet Arsenic and Old Lace. Delightful British comedy starring the incomparable Maggie Smith. The former "Trunk Murderer" is out of the asylum and posing as a housekeeper goes to work for her estranged daughter (now a vicar's wife). Grace goes about fixing everything and everyone using a shovel, a frying pan, an iron and her own charming and somewhat twisted logic.
When Gloria discovers what's going on, she says, "You can't go 'round killing people just because ... Read More
Rating: - How to keep Mum and enjoy it!
Keeping Mum is the nice quiet story of Reverend Goodfellow (Rowan Atkinson) and his totally dysfunctional family. Reverend Goodfellow is absorbed in the community, sacrificing his family for the community. Gloria Goodfellow (Kristin Scott Thomas) is the reverends wife and is totally frustrated that her husband is absorbed in his work; so much that she's taking up golf and has a sleazy golf instructor (Patrick Swayze). Reverend Goodfellow's kids, Holly and Petey are almost cut from the Kelly and ... Read More
Rating: - Darkly charming
This was one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. I'm sorry it didn't get wider release, and very pleased to own it. Well, first, I would watch Maggie Smith read the phone book, and then it's got charming English scenery, and oh yeah, Patrick Swayze in a hilarious turn as a lecherous golf pro. Think of it as "Arsenic and Old Lace" meets "Father Ted." Story by Richard Russo, author of "Empire Falls" and other good novels.
Rating: - " HMMM IS SHE STILL FOR HIRE " ?
saw this advertised on T.V. and didn't know what to expect but, since I'm a fan of Ms. Smith I decided I'd give it a watch . Well, I found it was to be on 4 more times between then first time and the next few days . Did I watch again and again ? If home , you bettcha .
Rowan Atkins ...pleasantly surprised. I thought all he could do was Mr. Bean . I was wrong.
Kristin Scott Thomas ...great in her part of the negelected wife .
Patrick Swayze ...I was surprised ... Read More
Rating: - What a movie!
Keeping Mum is one of the best movies I've seen in a while and it has everything, murder, comedy, sex, you name it! Maggie Smith is perfectly cast as is Kristin Scott Thomas and let's not forget "Mr. Bean," who is equally as good in this delightful movie. Much better and far more entertaining than the usual shoot 'em up crammed with special effects movies that seem to be engulfing our cinemas. If you just want a fun movie with a story, yes a real story, and some laughs, Keeping Mum is one not to ... Read More
