It's going to be one of the BBC highlights this Christmas - I think it's on Christmas Day, not sure - but it's also out on limited run in the cinemas and we went to see it last week. Definitely worth sneaking a preview early as it looks magnificent on the big screen and has a great early and mid-20th Century soundtrack. It's also heart-warming and heart-breaking in equal measures. Anyone else seen it yet?
