The Secret Scripture, GFT, until 25 May, 2017
Jim Sheridan (In the Name of the Father, In America) brings Sebastian Barry’s novel to the screen in an elegantly crafted, unabashedly romantic production. Roseanne McNulty (Vanessa Redgrave) has spent decades in a mental institution. Dr Grene (Eric Bana) is assigned to determine her future and discovers a Bible filled with drawings and memories of her past. As Dr Grene draws Rose’s story out of her, we see it unfold: young Rose (Rooney Mara) disregards local boys’ attentions and falls for dashing RAF pilot Michael (Jack Reynor). But it is a romance that is to put her at odds with church and state.
