After a rubbish day, there is nothing that relaxes me more than taking myself off to the movies. There's something about sitting in the dark, watching other people's stories that calms me to the core.
So, after a pretty tough Tuesday, I popped round the corner from my office to see what was on at the local Vue. The next film showing; Robot & Frank, a film I'd read great things about, with a cast of actors I admire and an interesting concept. Had to be worth checking out.
This film tells the story of Frank, a former cat burglar who, as old age fast approaches, is bought a robot butler by his concerned son. The film goes on to tell the story of the relationship between this cantankerous old man, struggling to deal with the limitations of his advanced age, and Robot, his faithfully programmed electronic home help.
This film is a beautiful story about finding love and companionship in the most unexpected places.
