A Nice Family Film

I really enjoyed the film. and I highly recommend it. It is a film the whole family can enjoy without being embarrassed. I think it is well written, well cast and well acted. I love stories set in small towns and this one is great. It isn't Mayberry, but there are the typical small town regulars. There is the small town rich guy who thinks he can get away with anything, There is the sweet lady in the diner who is "auntie" to everyone, Even the "poor" junk man who has his secrets can be found in a lot of small towns.

To those who criticize the fact that Sammy fakes his deafness for so long, well, that is the whole point of the story! There would be no story if he had been caught out! It is a piece of fiction, not "reality". I say don't worry about it and enjoy it for what it is. A nice, funny, story with a twist to the end!

score 8/10
