Sliding Doors

Sliding Doors has nothing to do with sliding wardrobes essex. It doesn’t even have anything to do with wardrobes. It is, in fact, a film released in 1998, starring Gwyneth Paltrow from before she was Oscar-winning, famous vegan, married-to-that-annoying-wally-from-Coldplay Gwyneth Paltrow. The film deals with parallel timelines in the wake of Paltrow’s Helen missing a train on the London Underground, where she would have met James, played by John Hannah. It’s a bit of a fluffy romcom and, while one or two wardrobes are glimpsed in the background, they don’t, unfortunately play a major part in the narrative.

A movie to watch when you sat in with a box of chocolates. Sliding Doors is not a timeless classic, but is an easy watch and makes you think. The story is about the decisions you make, combined with fate. Probably more of a womans film than a mans but a nice easy watch.
