The Lady in the Van

Maggie Smith was just brilliant in this, one of the best performances by an actress of last year so far for me. This was a very touching movie, a good comedic paring with Richard Gere's astonishing turn in "Time out of Mind", for which I still can't believe he wasn't nominated. A lovely film. 3.5/5
