Little Voice (1998)
Michael Caine, Ewan MacGregor, Brenda Blethyn, Jane Horrocks, Jim Broadbent
The pathetically shy LV lives the life of a recluse listening to her late fathers old records in her room and in the process driving her abusive, loud-mouthed mother, Mari Hoff, to distraction. At night, however, when her father's ghost visits, LV sings the songs of the great divas such as Judy Garland, Marilyn Monroe and Shirley Bassey.
4/10. I thought I'd unearthed one of those long forgotten little British gems. I hadn't. It was rubbish.
