Review of Mr. Turner (2014) by Riaan_Radiohead — 08 Jan 2015
Mr. Turner could be Mike Leigh's (71) most accomplished work in a remarkable career where every film from Secrets & Lies, Vera Drake to Another Year have been staggering humanist masterpieces.
Visually Mr Turner is Leigh's most gorgeous film, filling the screen with scenic beauty and human warmth.
Mr. Turner also contains some of Leigh's best tightly controlled and masterfully executed drama.
Timothy Spall too as Turner is simply a magnificent dominating screen presence, bringing years and years of acting experience to a role that lends such philosophical and emotional weight.
