Anita & Me (2002)
Excellent film... which will be forgotten
28 November 2002
I find it refreshing to see a film that contains an insight into other cultures.

I found it had a similar foundation as East is East; if you care to share my feeling of the film, Anita and Me was nice and sweet, while East is East was salty.

The story is indeed a solid piece of work. It tells the life of a 12-year-old girl living in the East Midlands in 1972, where she is discovering a more advanced way of life - teenage angst in other words.

The cast were superb - fine piece of acting from those familiar BBC faces. It is such a shame that the film will be forgotten.

Choose this instead of James Bond (Die Another Day clashes with this at the cinema) - at least you get to see James Bond every Bank Holiday Monday.
