I would say there is something magical about this film, but I'd be lying, everything about Girl's Night is magic. The story is sad, heart felt, heart warming, and gritty in a real life way. The combination of Julie Walters and Brenda Blethyn is jaw dropping on paper, and they perform outstandingly well together. Kay Mellor in my eyes can do no wrong, and this is another example of her at her best. The mix of the Northern working class environment, and glitz of Las Vegas makes for a great contrast. Even after all these years I can't watch it with a dry eye. Emotionally engaging and moving, this is truly a class act. It's a shame that we don't seem to be getting TV dramas like this anymore.
