Peterloo

Leigh is to be applauded for his dedication to accuracy...

Leigh’s ambition (...) is to forge an epic about the powerless rather than the powerful.

The sheer anger Leigh feels burns through the screen, its power ultimately overwhelming any flaws you may have previously noticed.

There is force, grit and, above all, a sense of purpose; a sense that the story he has to tell is important and real, and that it needs to be heard right now.

...en filmiskt kraftfull, men stundtals något övertydlig kompensation för historielektionernas eventuella brister i skolorna.
