One Day (2011 Lone Scherfig)

Smart move of David Nicholls to end his screenplay at the beginning - though does make you ask why he (Jim Sturgess) wouldn't have phoned her (Anne Hathaway) the very next day, and they would have gotten together immediately. But that, I suppose, would have been no fun. Also liked the once a year idea because what's happened in the interim is often not stated but picked up somehow visually. Very nicely acted by the couple and Ken Stott, Patricia Clarkson, Romola Garai and Rafe Spall, who gives it a quirky spin.
