Their Finest (2016 Lone Scherfig)

Lissa Evans wrote 'Their Finest Hour and a Half' from which Gaby Chiappe's smart screenplay is derived. (Shetland, Vera, Lark Rise, Casualty, Holby, Eastenders - get the picture?) I'm not sure I would have killed Sam Claflin, but there you go. It's very entertaining throughout.

Gemma Arterton, Claflin, Bill Nighy, Rachael Stirling (v. good - and excuse me, Q was right - she was in The Bletchley Circle), Henry Goodman, Jack Huston, Paul Ritter, Eddie Marsan, Helen McCrory.


'Tin Hat Tallulah'.

Shot by Sebastian Blenkov in widescreen, which was a stupid decision as it clashes badly with the 4x3 nature of what we are after all dealing with.
