Rating: 4.5 cats
Director: Bernard Rose
Starring: Chloe Sevigny | Crispin Glover | David Thewlis | Elsa Pataky | Rhys Ifans
Thom says: “Surveying director Rose’s rather run-of-the-mill curriculum vitae (IMMORTAL BELOVED, PAPERHOUSE, CANDYMAN, etc.), I had no reason to suspect I’d enjoy this film so much & would have probably passed on it were it not featuring the indomitable Ms.

Rating: 2.9 cats
Director: Roger Michell
Starring: Daniel Craig | Rhys Ifans | Samantha Morton
Michael says: “What could have been fascinating and unusual turned out to be fairly pedestrian, beautifully filmed, and occasionally over-the-top. ENDURING LOVE, based on the novel by Ian McEwan, was directed by Roger Michell, whose unusual career includes such films
