Since the first time I saw this movie, I've adored it! It has a great plot and I love Colin Firth. He plays the father in the film. It's a sweet father-daughter story. I definitely recommend it.

This premise, a young girl going to London to find her father to fill in what is missing from her life, is both contemporary and ageless. The plot is excellent, the acting is uniformly good, especially the father ( Colin Firth) who, by her appearance, is faced with a decision of what kind of life he wants to lead going forward.

Great cast, great story, and great soundtrack. Going to her Dad and get to know him, I can relate because I am adopted and would like to know my real dad & mom. What they're like, family traits, and lineage.
