"A bittersweet, cardigan-clad small treasure of a film and a balm for battered souls. If there's any justice in the world it should be the breakout hit of the summer."
Wendy Ide, Top Critic, Observer
"A deft and funny character comedy - The Ballad of Wallis Island cheerfully encourages us to shrug off the past and move forwards; it's a delightful, entertaining British movie that fully deserves its growing success with audiences at home and abroad."
