An Angel at My Table is a spiritually-uplifting portrait of New Zealand poet and novelist Janet Frame. There is nothing more satisfying than having the luxury of watching a life unfold before your eyes, particularly one in which obstacles are overcome.

30 From 90: My Favorite Films From 1990 (30 movies items)"Based on three autobiograhical works of New Zealand's most popular author, An Angel At My Table follows the awkwardly turbulent life of Janet Frame. After being born an incredibly poor, awkward, chubby kid with a messy flop of red hair, Janet grew up to become an unmotivated teacher who ends up being misdiagnosed with severe schizophrenia.
