The Girl in the Cafe

I finally saw the Girl in the Cafe and really enjoyed it! I do not know why it still surprises me, but I am constantly amazed by the number of versatile characters that Bill Nighy is able to flawlessly create.

The film came out in 2005 and focuses on the relationship between Lawrence, a civil-servant currently preparing for a G-8 summit that will determine how much time, effort and money will be used to reduce extreme poverty  and Gina, a young Scottish girl with nothing but time on her hands.

Bill Nighy and Kelly Macdonald were both amazing, and as usual I can only expect the best from director David Yates (State of Play and the Way We Live Now) and writer Richard Curtis (The Boat that Rocked, Love Actually, Notting Hill, Four Weddings and a Funeral, and Blackadder). I would definitely recommend this film. It is definitely a must-see!
