Search: Starring Bill Paterson

Where Fry succeeds so well is allowing the intrinsic innocence of these brittle butterflies to be exposed without mockery.

A taut thriller rooted in several strong performances.

It is hard not to admire a film that manages, for all the shoestring meagreness of its budget, to be so broad in its ambitions.

For a feelgood movie, it is surprisingly slow.

Renée Zellweger inhabits the role of Beatrix with the warmth of a fluffy bunny and the perspicacity and determination of a woman artist struggling to be recognised in a man's world.

Bennett's script gently mocks his characters, while also maintaining a level of understanding.

After 15 minutes of fast zooms, sliced cuts, topsy pans and turvy close ups you want to be sick... after 40 minutes, you have eaten your words and are beginning to think this is original and thrilling.

There's talk of everything from self-fulfilling prophecies to Schrodinger's Cat but no amount of cod philosophy and cod psychology can distract from the fact that this is a very familiar formula.

The performances are crucial to the success of the production. They exceed expectation.
