Taking Stock

I absolutely loved this film. I thought it was both refreshing and ultimately quite charming. A kind of Woody Allen post great recession blues. It's not easy finding humor in financial desperation but Maeve Murphy some how manages the impossible and does just that with out in any way belittling her characters. In fact she manages to be sympathetic to them all. Even the ones who are not necessarily particularly likable. The film has the added bonus of a charming cast who are spot on throughout. And Kelly Brook is a true revelation. Such a wonderful and ultimately feel good, upbeat movie about a situation which on the surface would appear to be quite dire. We done all involved! Well done all involved!
