Disappointing, Great acting, Intelligent, Slow, Thought-provoking

See it if you enjoy the Mint and period dramedy. It is a 1920's British drawing room play with lots to say about sibling rivalry.

Don't see it if you are looking for action or a intense play. It is a slow and pleasant ride, if that sounds awful, miss it.
