The Angel's Share

I belatedly caught up with 'The Angel's Share', which I enjoyed, at the Seven Arts in Chapel Allerton, which I liked.


The film is light, but charming, and deals with the scope for redemption in all of us more convincingly than it does with the whisky industry or with the realities of carrying out a fraud/theft (haven't money-laundering laws reached Scotland yet?). The actors are good, although I at least was grateful for at least a couple of them not being from Glasgow; there were some stretches of impenetrable dialogue. And Roger Allam seemed to have wandered in straight from the set of Tamara Drewe. But it's funny - and what more does one want on a cold Monday night?
