The More You Ignore Me

My wife and I went to this on the opening night. We both love Jo Brand and have read the book, so we were a little worried that the film would not come up trumps. Well, we knocked for six by the film. Wonderful to look at, the performances were all stunning - especially Sheridan Smith, Mark Addy, Sally Phillips and it made us both laugh out loud one moment then have a tear in our eyes the next.

The young lead, Ella Hunt, is a star in the making - what can I say?! Go see it. I had an aunt who suffered from mental health problems and it truly brought back the memories of her, good and bad.

Brilliant British production in every respect. It is in a genre of its own (certainly not a comedy) and a heart warming depiction of mental illness. Doesn't sound interesting or entertaining but give it a chance and you will be delightfully surprised. Out of the ordinary, moving and tearful at times, it is a great story of human emotions, understanding and tenderness. Written by the comedian Jo Brand, the casting and acting are excellent. Enjoy!

The performances of all actors was exceptional, mental health very cleverly depicted requiring hours of research. Whilst some of it was amusing, it was not funny and definitely not a comedy. Did not live up to its billing.

This film are nearly brilliant,authentic,almost antique when it comes to props,costumes and settings.but then came the camel through the needle eye,hitting like an upper cut,a gigantic tattoo on an innocent mums shoulder. thats like doing shakespear wearing virtual reality googles in the globe theater. but otherwise it is an allright flick,warm and soft humour,and a good flashback for us over the edge aged.if you like english smalltalk,then this is for you

So I picked up my copy from local video rental called Visual Vibes in Lymington, Hampshire. The director Keith English is local and held a recent dvd signing session in this store. I collected mine and watched with my partner. This movie touches you with every emotion, from joy, to laughter to sadness, all emotions that we go through on a daily basis. The story was basic and simple to follow but the lead actress on this occasion Ella Hunt was fantastic as the daughter of Gina, played by Sheridan smith.

I would highly recommend your purchase of this movie!
