About this product
Product Information
Set in the beautiful misty fishing town of Port Liac in Cornwall England, SAVING GRACE--an easy-going comic gem--centers on Grace Trevethan (Brenda Blethlyn), a sweet and modest middle-aged lady, whose husband commits suicide, leaving her with his grave financial problems. While real estate agents from London prey on Grace, trying to take away her home to settle the debts, she and her faithful gardener, Matthew (Craig Ferguson), devise a plan to grow enough marijuana in her greenhouse to break even. Wiring the greenhouse with super-bright growing lamps that cause the locals to wear sunglasses at night, having the ladies for "tea" resulting in fits of laughter and silly behavior, and pulling the wool over the local vicar's eyes, the whole town gets involved in this secret "joint venture." Once Grace harvests her crop, she hits the high road to London as a pusher, trying to sell the dope to a major dealer and cash out. Director Nigel Cole has hit the nail on the head with this film. The musical score from Mark Russell has a folky, feel-good beat, and the careful filming is colorful and clear. Never once does SAVING GRACE frown on its illegal subject matter, which makes its story all the more entertaining.Product Identifiers

Terrific comedy
Always been a fan of Craig Ferguson but, this is such a great role and I can't imagine anyone else in Brenda Blethyn's role. The co-stars were fab too: Martin Clunes and Bill Bailey.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

"I love Grace!"
A funny, witty, clever little English comedy movie with a great cast, excellent dialogue, and downright funny situations. Without giving too much away, an English widow finds a very unique way to keep her property after her husband dies. The ending is side splitting funny, as is the rest of the film.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

I am still glad I bought it.
The DVD was great, the storyline was good. Although....I remember seeing some scenes from the picture a long time ago that were not in this DVD copy. There were at least 2 funny scenes missing...maybe three.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Cute movie
Cute, lighthearted movie focusing on the financial woes of a widow shocked by the unknown accumulated debt of her deceased husband. The prim and proper widow now must solve the issue and with the help of her gardener, grows and attempts to sell marijuana. All events are done with a sense of humor, but there is some reality along the way. This movie probably did not receive any critical acclaim, but again, it is a lighthearted view of the Port Issac community. You must have an open mind regarding marijuana as it is the tool to solve her issues.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Whimsical beginnings
Having a great love for Doc Martin, it is a delight to discover his humble inception in the character of Dr. Bamford. I look forward to watching it again and progressing through the 2 Doc Martin movies followed by the TV series whilst his character morphs.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Expecting better
Wish we could have found subtitles on this film. The plot was a little difficult to follow when we couldn't make out a lot of the conversation. We're hoping that the DVD player in our RV works better than the one at home, and we will watch this again on our next road trip.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Typical mix of Brit-&-Scots humor - makes you laugh long after the movie is over.....
The narrative, characters and the cinematography is awesome. A perfect blend of satire and tongue-in-cheek humor. The music score is the icing on the cake!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
