Irina Palm

Marianne Faithful stars as a grandmother with a secret in this dramedy which starts well but ends implausible. In order to save the life of her grandson, Maggie (Marianne Faithful) becomes a professional wanker of the title in London's Soho. The film feels somehow false and the sick grandchild with the mysterious disease as a gimmick to send the character into the direction which the film feels to focus more. The romance between Faithful and Miki Manojlovic totally derails the film at the end. YRCinema's coverage of the AFI Fest 2007.
