A small movie with a big heart . The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry is a wonderful, heart warming and at times heart wrenching story of Harold Fry who decides to walk 500 miles to visit an old dying friend, whilst leaving his wife and life behind him. The cinematography of this film is beautiful—a story full of fleeting moments and what-ifs, and the impact that small actions can have on the people we come across. A life-affirming and thought-provoking movie that will make you want to be a better person. Gently heartfelt acting from a top-flight cast. Jim Broadbent and Penelope Wilton are two fine actors on top form here. This is another small movie with a big heart which it wears on its sleeve. This is a wonderful piece of unassuming and understated British filmmaking.
