What a gem!

Michael was wonderful as always. And Julie Walters was just perfect. What a great performance.

I love this movie - and the play, actually.

I love this movie.
"Hello, Frank." to be said in Walters' posh accent.

Wouldn't you just diiiiiiiiiiie without Mahler?

Love me some Julie Walters, she's a goddess. This is one of Michael Caine's better performances.

I find the movie dated almost beyond belief now, that ghastly music mainly. But Julie W. is just a joy in everything, except alas MAMMA MIA. I keep wishing they'd put out PERSONAL SERVICES on DVD, but it doesn't seem to be in the cards.

When I was in college, one of my frioends came back from this movie crying. I was an Art History major and her parents forced her to be a finance/economics major. She kept saying how much she wished she could have been studying the arts instead. I love this movie! Thanks for the memories!

Roscoe, that music was dfinitely the worst part about it. It actually detracted from the film IMO.
I kept thinking about how that final shot could have had so much more impact had it benn underscored decently.

I always thought that Michael Caine was a bit too lower middle class to be considered a university professor.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
