Search: Starring Ewan Stewart

This is less a tale of exploitation than a portrait of isolated individuals still playing a game that long ago lost its meaning.

A work of brilliance, painful as a punctured lung, fierce, uncompromised, operatic, sexual, startlingly beautiful and yet poisoned with evil.

LWT have done justice to an unusual talent, a writer who tirelessly pioneered the medium of television as a valid art form.

Photographer-turned-director Jake Gavin brings maturity and warmth to his debut feature.

The plot makes as much sense as a French haggis.

The fantasy sequences don’t work and the childhood flashbacks are too predictable.

The climax of Adam and Alice’s vengeance becomes so extreme that it veers into black farce. As a thriller it’s tight and gripping enough.

The difficulty with sustaining intensity for any period of time is that it so easily becomes ridiculous, but there is absolutely nothing in this brutal, at times violent film that will have you laughing.

Emotion stains the walls of this period film like gutter waste.
