    Editorial Reviews

    Based on the novel by Graham Swift, this drama follows the past and present crises of schoolteacher Tom Crick (Jeremy Irons), who attempts to resolve the problems in his own life and the apathy of his students by relating stories of his troubled childhood in the English Fens (a marshy region in Britain).

    June 19, 2006: In this wonderfully surrealistic movie, everything in Jeremy Irons' history course is a story-a story in which he tries to teach his students about. It involves his past and his difficulties among them strange family dynamics, abortion teenage sex and its consequences. I was in awe over the music, complimenting an already melancholy. A story that everybody knows, but does not discuss openly. This type of movie revives a sense that concealments of your past do finally catch up with you. After all, no story ends happily.
