Synopsis
In this made for TV adaptation of Tony Parsons' best-selling novel, Ioan Gruffud plays high-flying executive Harry Silver who has to learn the hard way what fatherhood is all about. When the unsettled Harry has a one-night stand with a colleague, his wife leaves him to care for their five year-old son on his own. After a bad start, he ropes in help from his parents and an American waitress and soon they are discovering how strong the father-son bond can be.

5.0 out of 5 stars just lovely!, 1 Aug 2004
By Ulrike Mecker "ulrikemecker" (Hamburg) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
What a lovely little movie (and "little" is meant entirely as a compliment!) about the joys and pains of love and family!

Here's a movie that doesn't need any big effects and that still had me pinned to my seat while blinking away the occasional tear...but it leaves you with a smile in the end...

No, the story is not necessarily new but then these are people like you and me facing every day problems and forced to make decisions we can all relate to.

Ioan Gruffudd is at least as talented as he is handsome and the whole cast - including and especially the little boy who plays his son - do a terrific job.

If you have a single romantic bone in your body you will probably enjoy this...but be warned: If you don't have a family of your own just yet this movie might well make you yearn for one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 13 May 2003
This review is from: Man And Boy [VHS] [2002] (VHS Tape)
I am so looking forward for this release. I remember watching this last year on the BBC and absolutely loved it. I'd recommend this to anyone who liked the Richard E Grant film 'Jack & Sarah'. This is better however - much more appealing and timeless. Just buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hooked on Parsons, 8 Jul 2004
This book got me hooked on Parsons and I have waited with baited breath for the next two books to come out. Since reading this I have passed it on to friends and family and eveyone has enjoyed it and found Parsons to be a brilliant writer.

Before this I have always read books by female writers (except for Nick Hornby) as I thought that I could not relate to a male writer's views or that they simply would not be able to write with the same depth of feeling as women. How wrong I was! This changed my views on male authors and men in general.

A very touching book. Not sure about the characters. Yes, the main character is an idiot by having a one night stand but his wife seems to turn into super-bitch afterwards and seems to use the infidelity to give up on a marriage which she always felt had trapped her. It is similar to 'Kramer versus Kramer' but better, I felt.

This novel is very well adapted in the TV drama which is now available on video and DVD.
