The History Boys

[turquoise]

Just seen this - it was fantastic. Very, very funny, moving, thought-provoking - and beautifully cast. Frances de la Tour particularly stood out IMO, and Mr Irwin and the boy who played Posner (don't know their names).
Only two mild down points for me: it was rather a creaky transition from stage to screen, and the headmaster was a bit OTT, but maybe that's because the other performances were so brilliant.
Heartily recommended, Alan Bennett at his best.

Oh Good, planning to go and see this soon - big effort to go to flicks so good to know its worth it.

saw the programme about this last night, what cert is it? i want to take my 13 year old son think he'll love it

I can't wait to see this film, thanks for the review turq

I heard it is not so good as the play so won't bother. I loved the play and don't want to ruin it!

Do they have all the music in the film too?
