Dame Judi Dench is awesome and beloved. Maggie Smith has understated power and appeal.
Those of us who appreciate and expect nothing but the best in filmmaking watch movies like this. The rest buy tickets to watch what Hollywood PR Suits tell them they're supposed to like; substandard story-lines, meaningless scripts, exploding cars and blonde twinkies dressed up as rocket scientists or powerful attorneys. All shot with rapid-fire camera work and editing so hysterical, you feel like you're experiencing a plane crash.
No wonder ticket sales continue to fall each week! There are far more savvy, sophisticated moviegoers than Hollywood dares to consider. . . patiently waiting for films of substance and quality - just like Ladies in Lavender. |
