Bizarre and creepy (and lovely?) story of two older women (Judi Dench and Maggie Smith) who find a 20ish boy washed up on their 1930's English shore. They nurse the kid to health, while Judi does a creepy dance of watching him sleep and falling in love with him. Yikes. They soon realize that the kid is a talented violinist, which leads him to a younger woman (the gorgeous Natascha McElhone, from The Truman Show) and to the stage. It tries to be lovely, and in ways it is. But the creep-factor wins out.
