A purely unexpected treat about two people (Ben Kingsley and Glenda Jackson) uniting to set a captive sea turtle free in the ocean. Very strange and unique, "Turtle Diary" is an amazingly refreshing film. Much of the credit goes to Kingsley and Jackson for outstanding performances and the supporting cast contributing greatly. Go see it!
