Conclusion: 4/5
A very enjoyable film to watch because all the performances were very strong. Both Keira Knightley and Jessie Buckley were very good. Great to see Ruby Bentall – this is actually her second film she has been in this year. The other was The Personal History of David Copperfield. I hope to see her in a lot more films to come. I do think that this is one of Rhys Ifans’s best performance’s that I have seen. This is a very well produced and directed. Not so long ago I watched a documentary on TV about the 1970 Miss World competition. Watching that documentary gave me a good insight into what the film was going to be like. Before watching the documentary and the film I knew nothing about the contest and nothing about the whole story. One thing I did enjoy in the film was the 1970’s clothes and I think that the costume designers got this right and also gave it a lot of thought. I was entertained all the way through this film and was never once bored or looked at the time.
