Finally got round to watching Mr Jones and i must say what an altogether excellent movie it is. A little slow to get started but as the film progresses you realise why, it's leading you to the whole point of the film. James Norton, who I've never really given a lot of thought to , was absolutely outstanding in the lead role and had me engrossed. There's plenty of non speaking non action sections, which is to it's credit, actually giving the viewer a chance to think during the film. Would very much reccomend. I've left some other opinions out as didn't want this to contain spoilers, think it better to just sit back, watch and appreciate what we have.
Just started re watching this amazing series again, which may be a mistake as I can now see several weeks of zero sleep coming up! Brilliantly written, acted, produced and directed. Faultless from the very first introduction. Would and have reccomended this to anyone who has any sort of interest in quality TV.
Without posting any spoilers I would say Dame Helen and Sir Ian are outstanding and pretty much the only reason to watch this. The storyline is held together by a thread. It's not a thriller, just an enjoyable 2 hours of watching 2 acting greats doing what they do best. With a watch for that alone, which is a good job because that's pretty much all there is.
