"Emotionally raw... powerful" - Daily Record

"A cockles-of-your-heart-warming drama" - The Birmingham Post

Heroes Come In All Sizes

Eleven-year-old Jimmy Spud wants to be an angel the kind with
wings that fly. In other words, he wants to be like his friend Gabriel
(Billy Connolly-Open Season, The Last Samurai), a high-ranking
archangel who heeds prayers. Jimmy wants to use his "angelic" powers to save his father, who is diagnosed with lung cancer and
hospitalized, but first, Gabriel must teach Jimmy the nuances of what
it really means to become an angel. Only Jimmy is too impetuous to
be coached... and his father's time is running out.

Penned by Academy Award® nominee Lee Hall, Gabriel & Me is an
inspiring story of innocence and youthful dreams put to the test.

This review is from: Gabriel and Me (DVD)

Perhaps this truly is "A cockles-of-your-heart-warming drama" as one reviewer said. If I could understand more than about 1 out of every 10 words spoken by the main character, then I'd know. But this kid's accent is thicker than a New England fog. If only it had English subtitles...for an English movie, no less. I'm not a big fan of subtitles, but at least I wouldn't have COMPLETELY wasted my money.
