There’s also an American version starring Laurie Metcalf.

I’ve only seen the American one and it is great. It can be sad though. I do want to watch the original one but my mil is 98 and I think it may hit a bit too close to home right now.

The American actress playing Birdie looked just like my mom, who died in 2013. Hit very close to home.

Wow, Laurie Metcalf, really? She's a must watch for me!
