Review of Topsy-Turvy (1999) by Benjamin B — 07 Dec 2008
Mike Leigh is my favorite director. His work is so intricate and detailed here that it is almost beyond belief. Fantastic acting and lots of very funny, interesting characters. Because I am involved with theatre, this film was especially meaningful and truthful to me.
Superb scenes, the film as a whole is dazzling! The time that went into the detail of the film is mind-boggling. The way this piece was written and constructed is positively masterful - maybe even miraculous.
Did I mention it's hilarious? So many very quotable, witty lines! Lots of theatre jokes too which I can especially appreciate.
