Fannie Lye Deliver'd (2019 Thomas Clay & scr, ed)

A not altogether successful blend of home invasion thriller transplanted to England 1657, and a religious debate and the beginnings of personal freedom. Maxine Peake and Charles Dance are the couple who are invaded. I thought the young man looked promising - turns out it was Freddie Fox all along! With Tanya Reynolds (Sex Ed, Emma.) and Peter McDonald.

Clay quietly pushes his camera round the farmhouse and outbuildings - it seems permanently misty there. Giorgos Arvanitis is on camera. Nenad Pecur is the production designer.
