Kenny Doughty as Jed Willis is sexier in this role than any male porn star, even though he keeps his pants on.
The movie tore at my heart reminding me of the intensity of the big explosive love of my life. I don't think I can think of another movie, except perhaps Zeffirelli's Romeo and Juliet that captures that giddy joy that well.
The other draw of the movie is the very English eccentric characters enjoying the scandal vicariously. In that sense it is much the same appeal as Midsomer Murder or a Miss Marple mystery, without the mayhem.
This is a great antidote to the mock horror currently popular in the USA an any relationships between people of different ages.
score 9/10
