INDIE FILM GURU LEONARD MALTIN:

From his radio show 'Maltin on Movies':

"there’s a film called Dough. D-O-U-G-H, Dough, from England, starring the great Jonathan Pryce and a newcomer Jerome Holder, and the wonderful Pauline Collins. And this is about a kosher baker in a neighborhood that’s changing, in a society that’s changing, who’s trying to stick to his old ways and please his old customers, but things are, you know, not the same. Customer base is shrinking, there aren’t as many people interested in kosher, you know, goods on Friday and Saturday for the Sabbath, and he needs a new apprentice. And the new apprentice he takes on (because he has no choice) is a young Muslim man, an émigré. At first he doesn’t know how this is going to work out, and then it works out surprisingly well, for comedic reasons. It’s a lighthearted film. It deals with some serious issues, there’s serious undercurrents in the film, but they deal with it with a light touch, so when you’re done, you’re smiling. You’re not feeling like you’ve been beaten up or dragged through a social film with heavy issues thrown in your face. They’re there, but they’re handled I think in a very deft and clever way. And Jonathan Pryce is just so damn good – what a wonderful actor he is. And the young man, is named Jerome Holder - he’s new to me but he’s very, very good. So if you want sort of a feel-good movie, I would recommend Dough. That’s still playing in theaters too"
