Penelope Fitzgerald

England 1959. In a small East Anglian town, Florence Green decides, against polite but ruthless local opposition, to open a bookshop.

Mr Brundish lives

Mr Brundish, in the film, states that &quot;gods, humans and animals all have one thing in common - courage.&quot;

That was the heart of this story from beginning to end. You may not have liked that the story did not conclude as you would have liked but it was real and genuine, something we see infrequently.
