Het waargebeurde verhaal van Miss Shepherd (Maggie Smith), een excentrieke en koppige vrouw van onbekende afkomst die 'tijdelijk' haar oude busje parkeerde op de oprit van schrijver Alan Bennett (Alex Jennings) in Londen... en er vervolgens vijftien jaar lang bleef wonen. Gebaseerd op het gelijknamige boek en toneelstuk. (Universal Pictures International Netherlands)

Recensie (2)
Maggie Smith played the role of a granny from a well-known British play. A granny who smells like a spoiled egg and swears like a sailor. A granny who pushes her way in front of the house of the most boring writer under the sun. And since Alex Jennings doesn’t hide it at all, the whole movie goes on is a similar fashion. If it weren’t for Maggie and the English locations, it would be even worse than it is.

This is Maggie Smith's concert, showing that it's possible to be a great actress at any age, as long as there's a good role. This role is good, but overall, the film falls a bit short, and I couldn't really get into it for most of the runtime. Especially as a comedy, it works rather strangely and definitely might not captivate you.
