84 Charing Cross Road (13-Feb-1987)
Director: David Hugh Jones
REVIEWS Review by anonymous (posted on 17-Aug-2006) An ad in the Sunday Times
for used books leads an American spinster to meet through
correspondence the staff of the used bookk store and it is through
these correspondences that friendships are made and mature until it
reaches the point where they are almost family in a sense. The
American, Anne Bancroft, expresses a desire to go to England and to
finally meet these people she knows only through her letters to them
but this is not to be. True her friends do get to go to England and
they do meet the people there but through a series of problems Ms.
Bancroft can never seem to find the time or the funds. When she finally
does....ah but that would give away the ending. The story-line is
plausable and the characters are real. The acting itself is first rate
and i would hihly reccomend this film to anyone who appreciates a truly
feel good movie. No sex or violence, just good solid acting. No hidden
meanings or politics, just a good story.
