Shadowlands
Shadowlands – 1993
I watched this a month ago, but have just got around to reviewing it here. It's a wonderful film probably most suitable for middle aged ladies, but all can appreciate I hope. The always watchable Anthony Hopkins plays CS Lewis – the converted christian author of the Narnia books and good friend of Tolkien. In some ways it is similar to the equally good Depp film: Finding Neverland. It's the story of his romance with an American lady (Debra Winger) who greatly admires his work. It's extremely touching and very English with plenty of tea drinking and such. 8/10
