Changing the narrative

 

The Lost King (2022)


Directed by Stephen Frears this film based on real events stars Sally Hawkins, Steve Coogan, Harry Lloyd and Mark Addy. A middle aged woman becomes obsessed with finding the lost remains of Richard III.


For a film that is rallying against revisionism it is a bit hypocritical that it seems to have made some changes itself. For the most part the film is the usual self congratulatory stuff that British cinema loves to churn out. Just a tiny bit disappointing in the end.


2/5
