Movies - April 17, 2005 Sweet "Dear Frankie" sidesteps schmaltz
Leave it to Britain -- in this case Scotland -- to give us another unassumingly wonderful film about a family trying to make the best of things. In the case of "Dear Frankie," directed by Shona Auerbach and written by Andrea Gibb, it's a story about a deaf boy and his mother. Tags: Dear Frankie, Mortimer, McElhone, Scotland, Glasgow
