That was a charming review. I love that you loved the film. I really like it (it was a bitch to see with limited screenings even in my home country, I had to trek all the way out to this really old cinema in a little village somewhere) but I don't think it's quite as strong as its source BBC sitcom 'The Thick of It'. I appreciate though, that being so involved in the inner trappings of Whitehall politics it may be a little too esoteric to export to US viewers, but I missed that extra detail.

and most of his other work as well. Like the day today (even though it's a bit dated now) and partridge and FNA.
