Product Description:
Based on the novel by Colm Toibin, The Blackwater Lightship tells the compelling story of reconciliation between three generations of women, whose relationships have been marked by decades of misunderstandings. Angela Lansbury plays Granny, Dianne Wiest is her daughter (Lily), and Gina McKee plays Helen, Lily's daughter. The three women are reunited at Granny's home in the seaside village of Blackwater, when Lily's son, Declan, who has AIDS, leaves the hospital to spend time at a place he remembers fondly from his childhood. Declan's love for all three women in his family and theirs for him begins a powerful journey of love and understanding. Stars: Angela Lansbury, Dianne Wiest, Gina McKee, Keith McErlean

the film is definitely a little gem! I've bought it for illustration because I have the book in my literature course and I'm glad I did. Of course you need a quiet hour and no disturbance to catch the magic and the deeper truth of it. Just as one cannot read any book at any time, it is the same with films. You have to be in the right mood for such a film. Have you cought the right moment - it makes you think about your own life and family matters. Great camera work and generally marvellous acting ...

This is a very touching story based on the book of the same title. All the actors are wonderful, but Angela Lansbury shines. Many think this is a "gay" story but it is really a tale of family and discovering what is most important in life. Filmed on location in Ireland, the cinematography is wonderful for a TV Movie. It would be worth the price just to watch Miss Lansbury's performance.
