Shell Seekers September 15, 2007 Angel (Cheshire) 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
great chick flick hits all the buttons and reminds you of how different life was during and after the war and how relationships at that time tended to differ massively to today. Also great insight into family dynamics. Has its happy, sad, deep, emotional moments really really enjoyed it
Excellent adaptation of Rosamunde Pilcher's great book June 7, 2009 Bismaquer (London, UK) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Having watched the dire adaptations of the Winter Solstice novel by the same producers, I began this DVD with a heavy heart, and quickly found that, despite a few creaky moments, it really works well. I think the main reason for this is Vanessa Redgrave, an actress of such immense presence that she can carry almost anything. Here she has a decent script, excellent performances from Maximilian Schell and Prunella Scales amongst others, and pretty decent production values. A surprisingly good watch, really.
Disappointing December 24, 2007 Tilly Flop (United Kingdom) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
The first Shell Seekers with Angela Lansbury, although enjoyable, was a bit 'light and fluffy' so I looked forward to watching this version with Vanessa Redgrave - how wrong can you be? Some of the acting was 'wooden' as though the actors had forgotten their lines and most of the film was stilted and boring. Very disappointed - even the scenery wasn't up to much. Won't watch it again. The book on the other hand is great and well worth reading.
