I should say here - various friends said it was boring but since I'm a massive Mike Leigh fan I might like it. I loved it. For me, it did for movies what Turner did for painting, took it by the scruff of the neck and dragged the art into a new direction. Spall is, naturally, wonderful. Camerawork extraordinary. Editing and direction masterful. I really think Leigh is far and away our greatest film maker.
Cheers for the review JK, anything with Mike Leigh is worth watching. |
