FILM REVIEWS

Every week we take a look at the latest film releases - if you visit the flicks, let Claudia know your thoughts on what you saw via our review line on 03700 100 200. 

    The Duchess
    THE DUCHESS

    The biography of 18th Century aristocrat Lady Georgiana (pronounced George-ee-AYNA not Ahna) Spencer gets the big lavish screen treatment with Keira Knightley as the poor little rich girl married to a stuffy Duke (Ralph Fiennes), forced to put up with his infidelity while languishing for love herself. And she becomes a style icon.

    What Angie Errigo...

    "Very handsomely crafted - the costumes and frocks are wonderful, but where it's lacking is in the script. Even Ralph Fiennes who can usually make something out of nothing struggles to be interesting..."

      Rocknrolla
      ROCKNROLLA

      Guy Ritchie draws a rather tasty ensemble in a crime comedy of thieves, gangsters, a Russian billionaire, a sexy evil accountant and a junkie rock star who's supposed to be dead, all mixed up in the search for a stolen painting.

      What Angie Errigo thought...

      "Not a romatic date movie, but a have-a-laugh date movie as long as neither one is too prissy. Definitely a good lads night out..."

        Clint Eastwood
        CLINT EASTWOOD

        We looked back across Clint Eastwood's career, inspired by the BFI Southbank's on-going Clint Eastwood season showing there and Around The UK.
