‘What a glorious film this is, richly and immediately enjoyable, hitting its satisfying stride right away’ – Peter Bradshaw
Mike Leigh’s latest, a historical biopic exploring the last quarter century in the life of the legendary painter J.M.W Turner, is an exquisitely detailed return to period filmmaking. Long-time Leigh collaborator Timothy Spall depicts Turner, delving into the somewhat anarchic life of the artistic genius, never shying away from the lurid detail of a man who was simultaneously celebrated and reviled by both public and royalty. Earning rave reviews out of Cannes, this humorous, moving and eloquent film is another astonishing feat of filmmaking for Leigh and Spall.
