An excellent film, mesmerising, poignant and overall encouraging. Based on the life of AA Milne, and his son Christopher Robin. How the author slowly recovered from the traumas of World War I and started to write the world-famous books about Winnie-the-Pooh. The settings are excellent, the characters believable, and young Will Tilston is superb in his first role as the young Christopher Robin.

Not suitable for young children as there are some short but gruesome war scenes, and a few other disturbing sections, highlighting some of the problems that can occur due to fame, and also the coldness of Edwardian upper-middle-class society.

Very highly recommended to anyone over the age of about 12.
