Om denne filmen

Oscar® nominee* Laura Linney (Kinsey) stars as Laura Marshall, an overzealous, evangelical Christian do-gooder who fills her home with down-and-out boarders, including a senile, cross-dressing murderous mute. Desperate to expand his horizons, Laura's shy teenage son Ben (Rupert Grint, of Harry Potter fame) lands a job tending to self-proclaimed "Dame" Evie Walton (Oscar® nominee** Julie Walters, Billy Elliot), an over-the-hill actress with the mouth of a drunken sailer and an insatiable lust for life. The battle for Ben's soul begins as Evie shanghais Ben away from his repressive roots and takes him on an adventure that transforms him from boy to man — almost over his raging mother's dead body! A winning entry at the 2006 Moscow International Film Festival, Driving Lessons is an experience Stephen Farber of Movieline calls "a delightful coming-of-age story." © 2006 Driving Lessons Limited and UK Film Council.

A fun, lovable comedy. The plot's predictable but the story is still touching, sweet, and funny. The acting is strong and Rupert Grint is fabulous. Very British so it feels a bit quirky if you're used to Hollywood films -that's not a bad thing.

So funny it will have you crying...Love this movie.

Its nice to see a fellow brony making it big
