x Takes on Emma :":Wit is incredibly moving and features what is perhaps Thompson's finest performance ":
----David Nusair @ movie-reviews.colossus.net

" This is perhaps Thompson’s best performance of her career, and those who know her resume will understand that’s no small claim. She’s one of our best actresses working today, so it’s a real treat to see her tackle such weighty subject matter. She handles every scene flawlessly, and it’s impossible not to be torn apart by her character’s agony."

x Emma on Wit: " "Wit" originally started as a stage play in the US written by Margaret Edson. She's a kindergarten teacher but had worked previously in a cancer unit for three years. She took what she observed there and put it into a play which ended up winning the Pulitzer prize. It's amazing considering she's never written before and is not going to write anymore. After winning every plaudit under the sun she went straight back into teaching. Luckily Maggie liked how the film turned out. When I first read the script I'd just had my baby and I thought, "I can't play a cancer patient, I'm the size of a sofa!" but then decided that I had to try it as it. In my view it's one of the best scripts to have come out of America."
