The More You Ignore Me

Good movie!

Beautifully written and acted. We've worked in this environment for 30 years, seen loved ones sectioned &. Pals spending time getting the help they deserve. A few sad moments, but full of hope, love, kindness and gentle humour. Just watched it and could watch it all over again. Absolutely superb.

I watched this movie almost purely for its title. Having Ella Hunt didn't hurt. It was fine. Just a quirky, independent UK drama. Slice of quiet lives and all that. They don't really mention the Smiths much.

I loved this, a moving story of mental illness in a dysfunctional family. Great acting with an amazing cast. Well worth a watch.

Good story. Great acting, love Ella Hunt. Worth the time

This film is so cleverly written and sensitively directed portraying a family coping with mental illness with tenderness and great humour. The cast is absolutely stellar making the film compelling viewing. You need to see it more than once! So many well known names and talents playing true characters with the challenges, cheekiness and continuing stoicism of a long, complex family story. You will laugh out loud at hilarious moments delivered by the amazing Jo Brand, Sheila Hancock and Sally Philips and then be touched by the talents of young newcomer Ella Hunt. Sheridan Smith is by no means the only absolute star in this great film.

Brilliant British production in every respect. It is in a genre of its own (certainly not a comedy) and a heart warming depiction of mental illness. Doesn't sound interesting or entertaining but give it a chance and you will be delightfully surprised. Out of the ordinary, moving and tearful at times, it is a great story of human emotions, understanding and tenderness. Written by the comedian Jo Brand, the casting and acting are excellent. Enjoy!

One minute you find yourself reaching for a tissue as an emotional scene tugs on your heart strings and then a breath or two later you're having a belly laugh. A delightful movie with meaning and messages embedded within it. A good watch.

So I picked up my copy from local video rental called Visual Vibes in Lymington, Hampshire. The director Keith English is local and held a recent dvd signing session in this store. I collected mine and watched with my partner. This movie touches you with every emotion, from joy, to laughter to sadness, all emotions that we go through on a daily basis. The story was basic and simple to follow but the lead actress on this occasion Ella Hunt was fantastic as the daughter of Gina, played by Sheridan smith. I would highly recommend your purchase of this movie!
