Weeelll... same old really, isn't it? A plethora of good looking, vaguely 'highbrow' British stars; lovely shots of a picturesque London (Peckham, anyone?); and the affable Richard Curtis at the helm. Hugh Grant IS in it, but don't let that put you off, as he only appears for about 20 minutes. In fact, every character appears only briefly. This film differs from Notting Hill/Four Weddings fare because it weaves many different mini-stories (each about love in its many forms), which means that

The hugely popular and award winning drama that introduced the world to the genius of Dennis Potter. Arthur Parker is a sheet music salesman in 1930s Britain, frustrated by both his wife and his job, but Arthur has ambitions, which allied to his utter lack of common decency and morality have more hope than most of achieving some kind of fruition. Pennies from Heaven is a remarkable tale, blending harsh reality and whimsical fantasy with hypnotic skill, while the central performance by Bob Hoskin
