Director : John Hay
Running Time : 89 mins
The Christmas after Goose (Mills) is orphaned when his parents are killed in a car accident, he meets an odd man named Anthony (Izzard) who has no memory of who he is but has the ability to find lost things by touching the person who has lost them. Together with Frank (Flemyng), the man Goose fences stolen goods through, they attempt to track down a valuable book that Frank lost a few days earlier.
This starts off slowly and doesn’t feel like it’s going to be anything new, then Eddie Izzard shows up and all my expectations went out the window. This children’s drama is interesting in its tone and its pure Christmas sentimentality, and makes for a thought provoking viewing experience. Fans of Izzard will be impressed by his dramatic performance, but don’t try looking for holes in the story as there are many, which is common in movies of this ilk.
