Deborah Ross The Spectator 1d
The scenery is divine, and while the unrealistic ending -- which deploys the clichés of your average Sunday evening TV show -- lets it down the performances are excellent. Howells ensures we feel sympathy for Henry, and Everett’s butler is touching. Go to Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian 2d
3/5
The film imagines Paget wanting his theatricals to raise money for a supposed orphanage; the real reason may have been more narcissistic than that. Nevertheless, a strong turn from Howells. Go to Full Review Tim Grierson Screen International May 14
Although beautifully shot and designed, Celyn Jones’ solo feature debut fails to fully satisfy as either a tart romp or a tender portrait of self-acceptance. Go to Full Review Dulcie Pearce The Sun (UK) 1d
3/5
Directed by Celyn Jones, sadly the film never really gets under Henry’s skin and depicts him more as a caricature than the clearly complicated man he was. Go to Full Review Alistair Harkness Scotsman 1d
It’s a needle Celyn Jones’ bland direction and Lisa Baker’s shallow script comes nowhere close to threading, though Rupert Everett does some good work as the Paget’s ageing butler sympathetic to his master’s predicament. Go to Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall 2d
3.5/5
Director Celyn Jones creates several superb sequences, augmented by particularly magnificent costumes. And the performances have a lovely depth. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
