Can't give too much away, having seen a very early preview of
Churchill -
filming only finished four weeks ago - except to say that I was completely riveted and expect a slew of Oscars next year. Brian Cox is Churchill, at odds with Monty and Eisenhower in the final countdown to D-Day; Miranda Richardson is excellent as Clemmie. It won't be in cinemas until the NewYear - but it's worth the wait.
It's more than likely to be an even longer wait for us on this side of the pond, Mary. But it's so nice to have something really good to look forward to. I'm dying to see a film but so much of what's on offer has to do with comic book heroes, 'disturbing content', or 'scenes of a graphic sexual nature'. Florence Foster Jenkins opens in a couple of weeks...that'll be a bright spot!
ReplyDeleteNever seems to be much on during the summer, Darlene. Has Mustang been and gone? You'd like it, I think.
ReplyDeleteMustang didn't play around here, Mary, but I've just checked the library's catalogue and see that it's now on order. It's not going to be an easy watch but I've placed it on hold. Thanks!
