How about you
This is not a question! It's a Maeve Binchy movie directed by the guy who did Short Order. How about you is not as good though. It's rather bland, aimed at an older audience, and more suited to television. There is a group of old people staying in a home. They don't get on. The owner leaves for Xmas and her younger sister arrive to take charge. They don't get on either! Some big names appear but their best movies are long behind them. This is a problem with Irish cinema - hiring international actors who did their best stuff back in the '60s! There's a good sing-song featuring Redgrave in a pub. That's about it. The rest is not very good. Actually, Orla Brady is a fine-looking woman. Wonder if she's cougar? I'd be interested!
