In this touching human drama adapted from writer Alan Bennett's bestselling memoir, in 1973 he befriends the elderly Miss Shepard, who's living in a van that's been parked in his driveway for 15 years. It does seem unbelievable but these two have a chemistry that is touching. Oh! Alan has a mother too that needs caring for but not in his house. I am of the firm belief that Maggie Smith lends magnificence to everything she touches. The movie is touching with light humor and great acting. I give it an 8. Stars Maggie Smith, Alex Jennings, Jim Broadbent.
