The Leaving of Liverpool

So sad. Wicked what happened to migrant children and their parents. This drama tells the story sensitively yet doesn't pull punches. The acting from the young people and children is outstanding.

i thoroughly enjoyed this movie! A++++ watched it so many time and get more and more out of it.. i urge people to watch this fascinating movie! i would like to buy this movie but have no idea where to get it plus.. I'm only 14 and i have to ask my mum first but its still the best movie I've ever watch well i think I've said about all i cant say so ill just blab on telling people about the movie because i cant put it on yet. i like to think that the movie would just switch and that you have to watch Bert first but its still pretty good the way its put out.. i cant believe the way they treated them in the orphanage that was so horrible. Going to Australia sounded gr8 when you first hear about it.. but thats only because i live in new zealand and its pretty cold down here.. lol well i reckon this is the best movie i will ever watch.. i give it a gr8 recommendation

This gripping, moving and sometimes disturbing portrayal is so powerful that it will leave you deep in contemplation but at the same time hand you a sizeable chunk of cheery satisfaction, for this drama boasts a finely executed array of acting talents that make this lengthy time piece perfectly believable. A UK drama that Britons can be truly proud of.

This film was truly amazing to watch and i would watch it again and again if i could. It is a story of true compassion and friendship and will always be remembered by me as a true great. It truly is wonderful the dialogue was brilliant the acting was brilliant. Marks out of ten i give this film a positive 10/10.

Unmissable film about orphans who have been shipped off to Australia then later finding out that one fifteen year old girl isn't an orphan after all. Beautiful film, full marks. This one really sets you thinking, unjustly unheard of by most. Even though I only saw it about two and a half years, ago I still find it great.
