This is no film with crashing soundtracks, wild rides and fast dialogue. But it still packs a punch. Tremendously moving look at lonely lives and people who are left with no one, during, and at the end of life. How one solitary man can care for those who have died and have no one there for them at the end, makes for quiet watching. Yet, as this very cleverly constructed movie takes you forward, you are drawn and tugged by his silent, heroic dedication and caring. And it goes quite a way beyond the call of his job. The very end is extremely touching and wonderfully moving.

Truly moving and compassionate story of a quiet, lonely, and friendless public servant in London, daily laboring diligently in a thankless job that few would want, but he did it so well that his efforts might be called almost "heavenly". To him, his job was important to the point of critical accuracy in documentation, and was much more to him than mere service, it was a passion approaching art. It was his life to sort what remained to be done for those who had died without friends, relatives or anyone who might want or care to know. In that chore he was a Rembrandt, as he was just like those forgotten, meaningless people for whom he tried so hard to give at least some final care. To him, even if not to others, they were worthy. Whether out and about trying to connect the dots of a deceased person's past, or compiling the found details of same in a little storeroom office, cloistered away every day he carried on, trying to give some level of final dignity to those who may never have had any in life. A proper church funeral, with only him attending, was his way of sending them off with someone looking on, someone knowing and caring that they had lived but were now gone. This story was very small, as it had to be, and it was perfectly told and acted, with the great Eddie Marsan as the public servant and Joanne Froggatt in a small role as a deceased man's daughter. An excellent and fitting musical score accompanied. The ending was surprising, but as rewarding as an ending could be for a man such as he. Although unrealized to fruition, he did finally find a friend who cared to know him. And, there were others. You will not have a dry eye when you leave the theatre, but I trust that you will have a better heart for it.

Loved this film until the bus accident, I couldn't take it seriously after that. A bus knocks somebody down and kills them in the UK for every 27 million miles travelled. How likely is it that somebody as meticulous as John May would be standing there at the time? 66% of people in the UK don't believe in ghosts, so like me they won't buy into the final scene. Take the ghosts away and all you are left with is a cruel irony, a lonely man spends his life trying to get people to care enough to go to the funerals of other socially isolated people who died alone, probably because of his fear of this happening to him, and then nobody goes to his. I watched a beautifully acted, nuanced, poignant film for 1 hour 20 minutes followed by a load of rubbish for the last 10 minutes. Don't think I've ever been so disappointed by the ending of a film.

I never write reviews about a film but couldn't help but leaving a review of this one. I started watching this film thinking it would be a comedy, after all, the subject matter of the film made me think that comedy would be a must in order to keep the audience watching. It took no more than ten minutes for me to understand that the film was much more than a simple comedy. The main character (really the only true character in the film), Eadie Marsan is amazing. Here is a man that has devoted his entire professional career trying to find any living person or persons that could be linked to those who have died in the council area he works for. All of these people have died alone. No family or friends. No one ever turning up at the funeral. He has faced failure after failure in trying to arrange one case where people have actually been found, or after having been found, have been willing to turn up for the funeral. Then his last case, after he has been informed that he is to lose his job due to council spending cuts, turns into a quest. A quest, I think, more for his own peace of mind than anything else. I don't want to give anything away but the last ten minutes are very moving. This man, so ordinary yet so immaculate and organized in his work suddenly finds something more. Anyway, please don't give up on the film as it is a fascinating (at least I found it to be) analysis of life & death.

The movie is super boring. It has very little story and it is not exciting.

It is not often I would give a movie 10 out of 10 but this one really deserves the rating. A movie that seemingly starts off as a rather ordinary piece of work becomes a truly fascinating insight into an aspect of life we all miss because it occurs under our noses. An ordinary man is not an ordinary man at all. He is a very dedicated public servant attending to an aspect of life that we are seldom aware of, always sympathetic toward when it is brought to our attention, but generally ignored on the whole. This movie totally gripped me. It fascinated me in terms of what some people do to keep our lives orderly and it raised my feelings of compassion toward the "faceless" people doing seemingly ordinary housekeeping jobs. The development of the principal character, the job, and also the extent to which many, many other "faceless" or unseen people become involved was a masterpiece of scripting and acting. Underneath all this was a soundtrack to die for. Probably not a soundtrack you would buy to listen to, but one that matched the movie and its moods at a level seldom found in any cinematic offering. The story development and the ending were tremendous and the surprise ending (which is not a surprise if you pay attention to all the nuances and subtleties of the script and acting) blew me away. I cannot recommend this movie highly enough.
