Timothy Spall and Phyllis Logan in Le Dernier Bus (2021)

Life is a journey and The Last Bus takes our old soldier, 90-year-old Tom Harper (Timothy Spall) on an epic trip from his home of fifty years - a remote village in the most northerly point of Scotland - back to the place he was born - close to England's most southerly point. Battling against time, age and fate, desperate to keep a promise to his beloved wife Mary (Phyllis Logan), our intrepid hero Tom embarks on an odyssey, revisiting his past, connecting with the modern world and a diverse, multi-cultural Britain he has never experienced. The Last Bus is a road movie; a film about love, loss and the human spirit. A film that reminds us we are not alone - and that we're all on this ride together...

Beautiful Film

This is rare movie, as it brought tears to my eyes. It reminds us that there are still kind, generous, wonderful people in the world.

A surprisingly beautiful gem

Timothy Spall stars - brilliantly obvs - as a recently widowed elderly man using his OAP bus pass to travel from his home in John o Groats to his former home in Lands End. It was an understated beautiful film and I cried about 8 times, the last of which were floods of tears. Nice tears mind. Surprise of the year so far.

Can't stop the tears

I never expected "The Last Bus" to be so touching. The story is told bit by bit through flashbacks, and gradually fills in the blanks. This enhances connection with viewers. Towards the final twenty minutes, I really feel for the old man, sand just can't stop the tears. The film is really beautiful, and portrays a plethora of deep emotions effectively.

Anecdotes
Nick Lloyd Webber, who composed the orchestral soundtrack for this film, was the son of Andrew Lloyd Webber.

Gaffes
Tom's claim that he was an underage (15 years old) stretcher bearer in WW2 is most unlikely - but not entirely impossible. Due to changes in the law since WW1 the age of enlistment was raised to 18 in the inter-war years, only being lowered for duty in the Home Guard. This was much more stringently enforced with I.D. checks, however there are well documented cases of British teenagers of the time applying and being accepted for duty, albeit by lying about their ages - the youngest of these was just 14 years and 152 days old when he died. However it is possible he made this story up to dissuade the young man he was telling it to from joining the army in the first place.
