A crotchety old man dying from a failing heart meets a homeless boy who tried to kill himself. Seems a match made in heaven. Even though this is listed as a drama I found it funny and laughed out loud in places.. maybe its just me. Brain Cox does bastard like few people can and he really ramps up in this role. As the owner of a seedy back alley bar he decides to make the homeless kid he meets in the hospital his ward. Even though much of the movie comes as no surprise, it doesn't take away from its enjoyment and while I thought I had things figured out early my mind started to change as the movie progressed. Definitely aimed at a mature audience. If you are able to laugh at everyday things I think you will find this one as entertaining as I did. Call this one roasted duck with brandy sauce. Recommended.
