Fabulous feelgood film - As It Is in Heaven review by JR
We watched this with no prior knowledge of what it was except that Michael Nyqvist of Girl with the Dragon Tattoo fame was leading. It was a clever story line that tackled difficult social issues and ultimately love, life and death in a light hearted way. Nyqvist was amazing! Set in snowy Scandinavia it was a great script, location, cast and idea for a film. Would definitely recommend. Might get it out again ??

Stunningly Beautiful - As It Is in Heaven review by GM
This is the first review I have ever submitted as a long-standing member of CP which hopefully will immediately tell you what I think of this film. It is fabulous in every aspect. And to witness Gabrielle's song is the sweetest icing on a delectable cake. Highly Recommended.
