The History Boys (2006 Nicholas Hytner)

Written by Alan Bennett and based on his play, and featuring the same cast that was in the National Theatre Production.

Richard Griffiths, Frances de la Tour, Stephen Campbell Moore (all good) and Clive Merrison are the teachers. Pupils are Dominic Cooper, Samuel Barnett, Andrew Knott, Russell Tovey, James Cordon, Jamie Parker, Samuel Anderson and Sacha Dhawan. With Penelope Wilton, Adrian Scarborough, Georgia Taylor.

Photographed by Andrew Dunn.

For some reason, I'm having difficulty putting into words what I thought of it. Maybe I didn't think anything about it? Which for a film (partly) about ideas, articulation and opinions, is quite ironic.
