Its a great film, I agree with all the other praise for the director but my favourite scene is when the father is "going off to war".
He takes his young son into the garden to talk along the lines of
"this isn't going to make much sense now, but one day you'll be a man and...... [he produces a cricket ball] ....this is how to bowl a googly."
It won't make much sense to an American viewer I suppose but then much of this film must seem peculiar. Much of its charm comes from the effort of living a normal life amid the rubble. Wonderful
