| Colin Firth will lead the new WW2 drama |
Based on the book by Ben Macintyre, the film is set in 1943 when the
Allies are determined to launch an all-out assault on ‘Fortress Europe’!
The story of the movie will follow two brilliant intelligence officers,
Ewen Montagu (Colin Firth) and Charles Cholmondeley, who dream up an
inspired and improbable disinformation strategy to help the cause. It is
a richly human story of the soldiers we seldom see, who fight a
different kind of war in shadows and deception, haunted by the knowledge
that certainty and guarantee of success are nowhere to be found.

ReplyDeleteI remember the tragic ski accident with Natasha Richardson ; it has moved me very deeply.
All the three movies (Mincemeat, Made in Italy and Mrs Lowry and Son) look interesting and worth watching.
There are always some stories around their family. Did you know that both Natasha and Joely did not talk with their mother Vanessa for a very long time? She apparently wasn't a good moma.
DeleteNo, I didn't. I only know she was a great actress. Like many other great talents, she probably was a difficult person.
ReplyDeleteShe is still alive and kicking :)
DeleteWell, the way I see it Liam Neeson rocks even if his movies suck. Most of them. No? What say you, Dezzzmeister?
ReplyDeleteCan't say I watch his movies, he mostly stars in action flicks and I don't do that.
DeleteYou don't mostly star in action flicks??? Say it ain't so.
DeleteI don't, I only do epic drama.
DeleteI like Colin Firth. To me, he's not the most handsome man, but there's just something sexy about his soft spoken nature.
ReplyDeleteAll 3 are definitely watch worthy today.
I'm looking forward to his Secret Garden.
DeleteColin Firth AND a WW2 movie? Heaven!
ReplyDeleteWonder who will get the other role?
DeleteThe WW2 movie could be good!
ReplyDeleteTrue!
