Flick Feast

Katie Smith-Wong

Ethel & Ernest is lovely, heartwarming and poignant animation.

If you are looking for something to brighten your day and make you feel hopeful than give Ethel & Ernest a watch.

[Briggs'] unique style of homeliness with an edge, ordinary lives charged with political content, told with quiet humour, has reached its highest point so far in the deeply affecting Ethel and Ernest and is another classic in the making.

This is a completely lovely slice-of-life story that will warm your heart and give you hope for the new year to come.

Ethel and Ernest feels unashamedly nostalgic, carefully researched and with a heart.
