The Bench 2018

      This is a story about six people living in London who cross paths on a park bench in Haggerston.  Henry and Willa are friends but it seems as if they both want something more.  Natalie has just moved to London and she is constantly writing letters to Ed but this is a one way correspondence?  Tommy simply wants quiet to read his book but he can’t ignore Natalie sitting next to him?  Glen and Gemma have been dating for years but Glen wonders if now is the right time to propose?  Gemma's father is in a nearby hospital and she doesn’t know if he will survive?  Her mother had been in a hospital and she passed away?


     Sometimes people are afraid to say what they really feel?  One couple goes out to dinner and they have a great time.  But, she doesn’t see him on the bench again?  What happened?  A younger couple decide that they might be right for each other?  Glen doesn’t know if Gemma wants to get married?  3 1/2* (I liked this movie)
