My Left Foot

"It surpasses even Dustin Hoffman's Oscar-winning Rain Man." - SUNDAY TIMES "A celebration of the human spirit you will be glad to have shared." - DAILY MAIL "If there is any justice, Day Lewis should win an Oscar for "MY LEFT FOOT" - VARIETY "Daniel Day Lewis deserves every award going for a brilliant performance as Irish cerebal palsy victim Christy Brown who overcome his appalling handicap to become a noted author and painter. He doesn't so much act as become Brown and the result is a screen portrait which is completely compelling. There are no weak points in this moving, funny and deeply human film...the laurels go to Lewis." ALAN FRANK - VIDEO BUSINESS "Daniel Day Lewis gives the most moving and convincing performance of his career." DAILY MIRROR "MY LEFT FOOT is inspiring, tragic, funny but, above all, exhausting to watch. Be prepaired for ajn emotional marathon." COMPANY "As with most films about the disabled, My Left Foot is an inspirational tale about the human will. It is difficult to come out without feeling uplifted and happy." Q MAGAZINE "If I was asked which was the better performance between that of Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man or Day Lewis here, I would undoubtedly choose the latter. It's that good that necessary to see." THE GUARDIAN "Makes you laugh aloud with sheer joy." EMPIRE "If MY LEFT FOOT doesn't sweep the BAFTA Awards board, there will be no justice, for it is quite simply one of the best films of the year."
