Review of The Look of Love (2013) by Mitchell B — 11 Feb 2014

I'm going through a slightly disturbing love affair with Steve Coogan at the moment, devouring everything Alan Partridge related... so this one is a bit of a curiosity. It's a rarity to see Coogan pulling out an impression of a real life character (unless Partridge actually exists) let alone such a dour character. But such is the watchability of Coogan that a man with absolutely no redeeming qualities is made fascinating. Paul Raymond is a monstrous cad however Coogan's inherent humour, though completely tempered here, brings a humanity to the lead that keeps him from being detestable.

Oh yeah, also... boobs.
