How About You
Based on Maeve Binchy's short story about four cantankerous rest home residents who make trouble for the newbie put in charge over Christmas. Vanessa Redgrave, Joss Ackland, Imelda Staunton and Brenda Fricker are known as the 'hardcore' and are imminently watchable as the sassy seniors who misbehave their way to a growing self-acceptance of getting older. Teeming with humour, pathos and wisdom, this is feel-good holiday fare Irish-style.
