    Excellent film and I really enjoyed it. I agree with all the other people that this is a really great film. I doubt my rating will help matters but we'll see. It's a shame we haven't seen Porter in anything since this film. My only qualm is if they might have cut down slightly on...( read more) the comedy, but it was still a great film. I wondered why this hadn't got a higher rating. Just shows, doesn't it?
