A British American drama directed by David Jones, starring Anne Bancroft and Anthony Hopkins.
A jewish woman in New York is pen pals with a British man at a book shop in London.
Boring. If you've seen them, think of this as a first try at Forrest Gump (1994) and Mary and Max (2009). The penpals live at a great distance and events of the time are mentioned. It was mostly about monologues (not dialogue) as the characters spoke their letters. The woman in New York City was written VERY Jewish and I found myself mocking her speech. Anne Bancroft is a great actress though. It looked and sounded fine. Just so dull. I rate it o.k.
