The Colour Room

Saw this advertised on sky and thought I'd give it a try. My wife thought it would be boring but watched it anyway. As a thirty year old I always used to go to antique auction and Clarice cliff always came up for sale and made good money. A great insight into the origins of Clarice cliff and how Stoke became the heart of pottery making. Watch the film, don't over think the story and just enjoy it.

I really enjoyed this film,knowing nothing about the character,or the biographical details.great cast well filmed should get a larger release,but alas bigger budgeted films get presidence at the multiplex.hopefully the more independent cinemas might give it a run if you haven't got the Netflix app.

And other keetchy kitchen cuttlery designed and made in the 1920's royal imperial kingdom of great britain, a biographical drama about one of the first trendsetting women industrial designers that made psychedellic colours become trendy and the number one among wedding gifts of the times, and a collectors item of today.

Its a beautiful made film, sharp and colourfilled but at the same time blurred out in a positive way, with a great deal of positive charged acting makes this a film that is a must see if your within the art crafts, or just a hobby potterer, or a china painter as my mum did(can still smell the american therpentine) many years ago, because this is for your eyes only if you want it to be.

An appraisive thanks to sky studios and.co. That has made such a delightfull story come to life, its gentle, periodical and feministic. The grumpy old man recommends.

"No man can appreciate and produce beautiful things whose sense of color is outraged every day by the dirt and soot that covers everything"

Pottery Gazette, 1919.

"The Colour Room" chronicles the life and work of English potter Clarice Cliff. A period drama that links the "romantic" 1920s with the story of a woman capable of overcoming her ingenuity in the face of any adversity.

Starring Phoebe Dynevor, in her film debut. "The color room", interposes Clarice's creativity, with the industrialized and misogynistic world of that time; Added to the charismatic performances, this film has all the nuances that are required to build a quite believable and entertaining story.

"Because of the heart of the story and its loving interpretations, "The Colour Room" is a very fine piece of pottery"

This is Such a fromalic basic film that is hard to believe its a true story ..for a start..the real lady wasn't a beauty by any standard..choosing an actress that is more of the plain side would at least give it that REAL feel ..think the wonderful film (Séraphine ) and how believable it was... also the authentic period piece feel was missing ..and the love story forced and unbelievable...the feminist tone also feels forced like its the case in most of the new productions...its a watchable film that feels like a standard bbc production which isnt a bad thing for a period film lover.
