This is the story of three long time friends who grow into women in 1950's Ireland, set against Trinity College, Dublin and their home town. Benny is the shy one, Eve is well grounded and Nan is the sophisticated beauty. When they go to College Benny falls for Jack. It seems to be a match made in heaven until fate, in the form of Nan conspires against her.
We have to contend with the heart break of the death of Benny's father and of her betrayal by Nan and Jack. In the end she matures into a stronger woman and Nan leaves to have her baby.
This is a well played romantic drama. All of the players acquit themselves well, but why does Colin Firth always have to play such horrible people. This is one to sit down with and share with your partner to show your soft side.
