Lynn (McDonough, Georgia)
If you are a fan of anything British or any type of gardening, you will thoroughly enjoy this quiet tribute to both.


5 out of 5 stars A hidden treasure   September 15, 2008
S. Barrett (Santa Cruz, CA)
Greenfingers

I'm a pushover for British films, so Greenfingers appealed even before I saw the trailer.

This is a charming, hilarious film with a touch of pathos.

It's loosely based on a true story of prisoners in a minimum security facility who develop a gardening talent an go on to place in the coveted Chelsea Garden Show.

Hunky Clive Owen plays Colin, a convicted killer. Good behavior allows him to be placed in a honor program where he discovers gardening, thanks to his elderly and frail cellmate Fergus (David Kelly). A chance encounter with horticulturist Georgina Woodhouse (Helen Mirren) sets the men and their mates off to create a real garden and, in the meantime, changes each man in the program.

Owen is a treat for the eyes and does a fine job as Colin, however, he comes across as a little stiff at times. Still, the film is good, clean fun for all and is one to add to your DVD collection.

Recommended.

This is an excellent film. Don't know how I missed it when it came out. Strong script and even stronger actors.

Why more people haven't heard of this movie I can't imagine! It is such a good movie and I never tire of watching it. Clive Owen and David Kelly were particularly good in it. Worth every penny and then some and please do not stop the movie when the credits begin to roll at the end otherwise you will miss a very funny remark that Clive Owen makes. I love this movie.
