Wicked

 A long day in college today, dovetailed nicely by Wicked Little Letters the lightweight black comedy with a suitably shocking potty mouth . I liked it, as the cast of this true story was to die for, and all of them looked as though they were having a glorious time filming it, There was some major scene stealing by Joanna Scanlon ( in a heavyweight bra) and a feisty Eileen Atkins which I loved

However it was Timothy Spall who turned out to be one of the most repulsive cinematic baddies since Scar  in the Lion King, that surprised the most. His performance was truly and genuinely frightening .

This is my sister’s review on Facebook , it made me laugh

    A perfect antidote for all day college, that essay writing, and day shift tomorrow.

  2. I hope Spall was wearing heavy make-up, otherwise he hasn't aged well. He'd make a very good Baron Hardup too.

      He's lucky to be ageing at all. The poor man's in remission from leukaemia. Spare a thought.

  8. I am a great admirer of Spall. He can play any character. The film sounds interesting and perhaps I can see it here, as I have done in the past after your recommendations.

    The film starts here in April, so I will mark it on my calendar and take myself to see it. I love British comedy and the more fowl mouthed, the better. It sounds like fun. Gigi

  10. It sounds like fun, I need to start watching films. Searching this, I found the nearest "art house" theater in the area, about 30 minutes drive away.

  12. Thanks for the recommendation, it's now on my list.
    I've never seen anything that Timothy Spall has been in that wasn't good.
    Love the blog by the way, I nearly went down the counselling route but ended up in fencing and groundwork!
