On Chesil Beach (2017 Dominic Cooke)

Ian McEwan's adaptation of his own novel isn't any better, unfortunately. Both Saoirse Ronan and Billly Howle are great, but the film is dull, and too long - it should have ended at the best scene - the record shop in 1975.

With Anne-Marie Duff, Adrian Scarborough, Emily Watson, Samuel West, Bebe Cave, Oliver Johnstone, Anton Lesser, Jonjo O'Neill.

Shot by Sean Bobbitt in Panavision, with music by Dan Jones and editing from Nick Fenton.
