Harold leaves home, walking to his post office to send her a letter. And out of the blue, Harold decides to keep walking, all the way to her hospice, 450 miles away.Surprising himself as much as his gobsmacked wife Maureen (Penelope Wilton), Harold embarks on a walk of hope as he sheds more and more of his old listless self. He notices, perhaps for the very first time, the wonders of nature, and begins to see people very differently, to understand that pain is what we all have in common and that kindness is less rare than you think.Perhaps this is a coming-of-age story, as Harold and Maureen rediscover themselves and fall in love again. And it is certainly a love story. Not a romance, but a universal story about love. The love of partnership, children, and of parents. The love of neighbours, of friends who have made their own sacrifices, of strangers with hearts alive and loves of their own.It is also about love for nature, of the plants that nourish us, wild and domesticated; beautiful sunrises and sunsets, springs that refresh us and the myriad shades of green that enrich us.Above all, it is about not forgetting to love oneself.Truly a celebration… an Adult Love Story. Stars Academy Award® Winner Jim Broadbent and Penelope Wilton.Based on the best-selling book by Rachel Joyce.COMING SOON

The Professor And The Madman Official Trailer Transmission Films 2019-03-11 | Based on the worldwide best-selling novel by Simon Winchester, THE PROFESSOR AND THE MADMAN is an extraordinary true tale of madness, genius, and obsession about two remarkable men who created history with the writing of the Oxford English Dictionary. The compilation of the Oxford English Dictionary began in 1857 and was one of the most ambitious, and revolutionary projects ever undertaken. Professor James Murray (Mel Gibson) took on the challenge of creating the most comprehensive dictionary ever compiled, but knew that it would take him and his team over a century to compile all known definitions. However, by “crowd sourcing” the work, that is, by enlisting definitions from people all over the world, the dictionary could be compiled in mere decades. As definitions were collected, the overseeing committee, led by Professor Murray, discovered that one man, Dr. W.C. Minor (Sean Penn), had submitted more than ten thousand words. When the committee insisted on honoring him, a shocking truth came to light: Dr. Minor, an American Civil War veteran, was a convicted murderer and being held at an asylum for the criminally insane.
