This screenplay has Patrick Gale written all over it: family complexities, same sex relationships and attractions, delightful setting and a great story which includes historical fiction. The story is made all the more powerful by the contribution of the ensemble cast, mostly. And as others have written in their reviews there's pathos. One of the main threads that bound it all together were the letters, a communication of the past and one which I lament the passing of. They are a beautiful and powerful history of the love between Michael and Thomas.
