- Brannagh's Finest Moment
This is a film that I went to see at the cinema on a whim. I liked Kenneth Brannagh's earlier films, especially Much Ado About Nothing, and had a couple of hours to kill.

I came out of the cinema feeling fantastically uplifted.

That did happen, and with very good reason.

Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

The actors represent most of the archetypes of actos I've worked with and this made it excruciating in places.

Humorous with a good dash of pathos

- In the bleak midwinter
Written and Directed by Kenneth Branagh, this is the tale of an out of work actor who decides to bring work to him by staging his own production of Hamlet in his home village and at the same time save a delapadated church which is to be the make shift theatre. This is a brilliant little tale with great performances from the all-star cast (many of whom can be recognised from "Kenneth Branaghs Hamlet"). The direction is also wonderful, shot in black and white and with a great amature feeling, yet professional ... Read More
