OK, it's Pantelis Boulgaris, but how about the rest of the package? I think that the director should choose a different - more interesting - story/script in order to build his movie.
Story is weak and not something we haven't seen before. Acting of main character (Tsilika) is weak. In couple of occasions you may feel that you are watching a play and not a movie. Of course this is not entirely her fault since the script asks her to perform those non-realistic monologues while make-up and photography are just too realistic and doesn't help someone who is not a doctor to understand certain conditions. To be precise at least twice people laughed at the cinema, and both occasions had to do with makeup and photography of her.
Part of the story made me feel I had a Deja-Vu with the movie "H timh this agapis" (1984), but without a clear message this time. Anyways, I think that "Mikra Anglia" has a decent story to tell, strong emotions, some good performances (Aneza Papadopoulou, Constantinou) with very good representation of life on a Greek Island on the ww2 era. But it's not a masterpiece, nor something you would like to see a second time.
