They are not allowed to leave their hotels without the permission and presence of government guides. They have their mobile phones...
...better than a basket of kittens. The performance is a hoot and a joy. It's not just a demonstration of tremendous skill; it's emotional persuasion. In two minutes, I had forgiven her for Mamma Mia!, and when she wasn't onscreen, I felt bereft, even though I knew a diet of nothing but Streep as Child would be like living on laughing gas, lobster and chocolate. Poor Adams. It's no wonder she seems to be trying too hard...
