VHS : Enchanted April [1991]

Enchanted April [1991]


starring: Alfred Molina, Joan Plowright, Miranda Richardson, Polly Walker, Josie Lawrence
directed by: Mike Newell
February 03, 2003


Not particularly for Lethal Weapon fans but a lovely gentle unfolding of a gentle story. It begins in a damp depressing London and end up in beautiful Italy. People, as well as the scenery are transformed and the memorable performances of Polly Walker and Miranda Richardson make for a memorable cinamatic experience. Buy the movie, you'll want to watch it more than once (or twice!).

VHS : Kate Bush - The Line, The Cross & The Curve [1994]

Kate Bush - The Line, The Cross & The Curve [1994]


starring: Kate Bush, Miranda Richardson, Lindsay Kemp, Steward Arnold, Peter Richardson
directed by: Kate Bush
November 18, 1993


As a avid Kate Bush fan it is difficult to find fault in her work but I must admit the acting wasn't all that but musically and visually what a treat!!! Having lost my copy in a recent move I'm waiting to purchase a new one so would like to take the time to renew it. Fans already in possesion of the Red Shoes album will be familiar with the music and those who have watched the Moira Shearer 1948 film will be familiar with the plot. Not wishing to spoil the storyline I won't go into which songs fit where but I will say that musically Kate fans will be amazed but don't expect an oscar winning acting performance.

VHS : Blackadder - Blackadder The Third - Series 3 [1987]

Blackadder - Blackadder The Third - Series 3 [1987]


starring: Rowan Atkinson, Jim Sweeney, Hugh Laurie, Stephen Fry, Tony Robinson
September 02, 1996


After the disappointment I had suffered on watching `Blackadder II' after `The Black Adder' I wasn't particularly looking forward to watching `Blackadder the Third'. It arrived perfectly formed as the best sitcom I'd ever seen. The shift to Regency England seemed to suit the Production Design of BBC sitcoms and the writing team of Richard Curtis and Ben Elton where firing on all cylinders.

The cast also came into there own, where Blackadder II relied on hackneyed and previously mined comedy of the `Virgin' Queen and her court the residence of the somewhat stupid George, Prince Regent, brought to life by Hugh Laurie worked well as foil to Blackadder without the fret of execution which limited the wit of his ancestor.

VHS : The Phantom Of The Opera [2004]

The Phantom Of The Opera [2004]


starring: Gerard Butler, Emmy Rossum, Patrick Wilson, Minnie Driver, Miranda Richardson
May 02, 2005


Only the hardest heart, or the least feeling of people would not shed a tear at Phantom of the Opera. One of the most beautiful and yet saddest of stories ever told. This is a good production. Not as good as being at Her Majesty's in the west end of London, but very good all the same. The story takes you to a place many of us have been, to a place of love and lust, of shattered dreams and broken hearts. A place where your heart strings are played and a love song sung with exquisite emotion.
Cuddle up with your loved one, share a bottle of wine and a tear or two, and appreciate the good things you have in life, and possibly / secretly ponder those lost and left behind.
Crying is not just for sissy's, it's a good and healthy release. I love this story, ... Read More:

VHS : The Lost Prince [2003]

The Lost Prince [2003]


starring: Daniel Williams, Matthew James Thomas, Brock Everitt-Elwick, Rollo Weeks, Gina McKee
directed by: Stephen Poliakoff
January 20, 2003


This was one of the best ever BBC dramas.
It made me smile but at the end it will make you cry!
It showed some of history that you would never know about unless you were
a true historian.
Everybody played their part well.
Worth watching again and again.

VHS : Damage [1993]

Damage [1993]


starring: Jeremy Irons, Juliette Binoche, Miranda Richardson, Rupert Graves, Ian Bannen
directed by: Louis Malle
November 03, 1993


[BEWARE SPOILERS]

I don't know whether I've ever watched a film in which I identified more with all the characters than I did in this emotionally wrenching masterwork from the late, great Louis Malle. It is part of the genius of Malle to, like Shakespeare, make every character real and to see and present the depth of even those slightly off stage.

I could begin with the youngest, the daughter Sally (Gemma Clarke) who says little and is always at a slight distance, her serious face in the backseat of the car seemingly thinking dark thoughts, her face down the hallway at night, seemingly knowing that her father has committed adultery with her brother's fiancée--yet not knowing. Louis Malle wanted a certain expression on her face; he wanted the primeval ... Read More:

VHS : The Crying Game [1992]

The Crying Game [1992]


starring: Stephen Rea, Jaye Davidson, Forest Whitaker, Miranda Richardson, Adrian Dunbar
directed by: Neil Jordan
January 22, 1996


This is my favourite film of all time. I know that there are better films, with bigger budgets and stars and all that, but this one is so well written and put together. For me Neil Jordan is a genius. I have watched this film numerous times, in various languages - my girlfriend is German and we each have a copy so sometimes we watch the film in English and sometimes in German, and I once caught it on the TV in Italy dubbed into Italian! The big surprise is a surprise no longer but we still find that scene superb. Unlike some other reviewers we find Jaye Davidson's performance convincing, but then my girlfriend shares Dil's secret so we know something about the subject. Overall a film to watch at least once and one that you may come back to again and again as we do.

VHS : Fatherland [1994]

Fatherland [1994]


starring: Rutger Hauer, Miranda Richardson, Peter Vaughan, Michael Kitchen, Jean Marsh
directed by: Christopher Menaul
March 11, 1996


This film is not great but it is worth a watch, my only warning is that you should watch it before reading the book (which is infinitely much better).

I don't quite understand what went wrong when this made for TV film was made as the casting of Rutger Hauer and Miranda Richardson as Zavi and Charlie (Charlotte) was spot on, yet halfway through the film the plot changes from that in the book, ultimately ruining what could have been a brilliant film.

With any luck another, more accurate, version of the book will be filmed in the near future, although who to cast will pose some problems...
