Comments: In 1959, a widowed Londoner moves to a small, Anglian town. She purchases a long disused house with the plans to turn it into a bookshop. The townsfolk are dismissive until the most powerful woman in town decides to block the bookkepper's dream. But is there hope from a shut-in widower?

This film is slow paced, and the dialog can be difficult to hear. These difficulties continue throughout the film with the occasional glimpse of excitement. It's really too bad, because the concept is good. Based on a novel.
