Brid Brennan and James Cosmo in My Sailor, My Love (2022)
Howard (James Cosmo) is a widowed sailor living alone on the coast of Ireland and struggling to care for himself. His daughter, Grace (Catherine Walker), hires Annie (Bríd Brennan) to help out around the house. Though Howard initially rejects this imposition, Annie's charm and gentle care win him over, and the two fall in love. Annie's large and loving family welcomes Howard into their lives, but these new relationships only serve to illuminate the depth of pain and hurt between Howard and Grace, who is facing challenges of her own. Grace's resentment tears at Howard and Annie's otherwise idyllic seaside love story. This windswept drama deftly balances a universal family saga with a tender and timeless romance.
