Walk Away and I Stumble (2007)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

When I first heart about this drama I was a little sceptical about it as I thought it'll be another vomiting inducing sugary drama about affairs and revenge but it was absolutely amazing. It is probably one of the best dramas i've had the pleasure of watching in a long time, if not thee best!! The only name in the whole 2 parter that I really knew about was Tamzin Outhwaite, the rest I hadn't really heard about before. I can honestly say that they were all excellent, all actors put in a great performance.I would say it's a drama that provokes thought, it certainly made me think. I really hope that ITV continue to endorse drama like Walk Away and I Stumble as in my mind there's far too much reality TV programs or nonsense programs that dulls the brain. I know that not everyone will share my view there, there's got to be variation for everybody but personally i'd rather watch dramas like that everyday of the week than soaps and reality TV.

The preview to the film was great, so I just had to watch it. The use of Kate Bush' 'this womens work' was well suited to the film. A gripping few hours, of intense acting and well directed performance. I only wish it was on for longer. I would recommend this film to anyone with a heart. A true masterpiece, that will be remembered in many years. The actors were clearly well chosen, and I believe in giving credit where credits due. I would only like to see more talented work like this on a screen as there is a great lack of it. Walk away and I stumble is one of the best pieces of work I have seen in a long time, and its shouldn't be missed.

There have been mixed reviews about Walk Away and I stumble, but I have to say that I enjoyed it.The first part was a bit fast paced, moving the story along too quickly, and there was no chemistry between Claire and Andy. But, the concluding part made up for all of that! It was a heartbreaking story and you end up having sympathy for all the characters. I had tears strolling down my face at the end. There are no bad guys in this, and thats what makes it different to other dramas... Fantastic acting all round, especially the two leading ladies; Tamzin Outhwaite and Julie Graham, when they were together. Kate Bush's song 'This Woman's Work' was a good touch too, it fit in perfectly with Claire's situation.It was a nice dedication to Tamzin's younger cousin, James Balwdin, who passed away with Cancer earlier in the year.

Laura or Helen or whatever you're calling yourself dude, you rocked man! I know I've already told you this but I figured I'd write it so everyone can see. OK, this was a very moving show which concluded in two parts, the first generally slow with not much action but the second provoking tears at some points, although maybe not when Tamzin died as she had managed to make a lot of viewers ultimately loathe her character. Having never been an Eastenders fan I can't say whether her acting skills have improved or not, I'd say that Tamzin portrayed the part of the husband-stealing cow very well, however you can almost feel some pity for her when she turned up in the second-part looking like she'd been dragged through a hedge backwards. However I (and my class feel) that the real star of the show was Petra (played by Laura Greenwood). Call me biased because she's one of my best friends but our entire school was in tears when she was on the car-park with the horse, and due to the fact most of us were keeping in contact during the show our parents could all hear a simultaneous yell of 'DON'T DO IT HELEN!'. We are also now united in hatred against the evil of the 'barn-boy' as we call him (the kid who spent the whole of his part on screen touching her up). On a whole this show gave us every type of genre we could want, with small let downs now and then such as the sex during the concert which I personally found...disturbing. Watch with an open mind and don't judge the actors on previous appearances and I believe you'll find you've watched a good piece of drama.
