Goodnight Mr Tom

[Ally]

Just watching this again as I do every Christmas.

It is just such a fabulous production..every scene is excellent and every actor plays their part to perfection.

Even the dog.

[Rodo]

I decided to give it a miss this time - have watched it so many times!

[Kaz]

Same here, it's fabulous but I must have seen it more than half a dozen times

This was my third time.

I seen it starting, quickly sat down...and couldn't pull myself away.

[Aggers]

We have a DVD of this.

Mrs A Isn't too keen, but I've watched it many times. It is a marvelous production, and brings
back so many memories of life during WW2. You've made me want to see it again.

I love the bit at the end where he rides down the hill and then calls him Dad. Wonderful

You sound like me.

I really will have to watch it again now - the next time Mrs A goes to town alone.

I'm glad you've mentioned this Rodo.

To me it's testament to the whole story of how the curmudgeonly Mr Tom and the lovely William bonded and loved one another enough to be 'father and son.'

Have you read the book Rodo - I'm keen to get a copy now.

[Rodo]

No. Do you know, I didn't know there was a book. It's an idea.

[Aggers]

I watched Goodnight Mr Tom again this afternoon.

My eyes were watering most of the time.

It's a wonderful film.
