Review of The Bookshop (2017) by Emmanuel O — 16 Jan 2019
An English friend suggested our film group see this, commenting: "A very ENGLISH movie with all the snobbiness and nastiness of a small English village.
Got quite scary, as only those who know the attitudes of class-ridden.
England would understood. Quite funny in parts also if you know the.
Modern literature of 1968.
Beautifully filmed. Well acted. And fun to see Bill Nighy in a.
Different role. It was quite tricky to catch the English accent for some.
Reason. It left me feeling a bit shaken. It was NOT the comedy I thought.
It might have been. A low-key thriller more like.
... NO banging and shooting - just spiteful hypocritical people, which the English excel in.".
Our group liked it - timeless story, fine acting, stunning scenery. Love Bill Nighy!!
