## Description

Stephen Poliakoff writes and directs this tense conspiracy thriller set in rural Norfolk in the days leading up to the outbreak of World War II. Romola Garai stars as Anne, a beautiful young actress with a seemingly perfect life: adored eldest daughter of prominent Tory politician Alexander Keyes (Bill Nighy), she is passionately in love with Foreign Office official Lawrence (Charlie Cox). As the storm clouds of war gather on the horizon, Anne stumbles upon some secret recordings of government meetings that reveal dark secrets about Britain's relationship with Nazi Germany, and soon finds herself inextricably caught in a tangled web of deceit and betrayal.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ powerful and subtle
*by A***E on 16 June 2012*

This film in some ways compliments Joe's Palace (BBC) [DVD] in that it is a study of the reactions of some of the upper classes to Nazi Germany and the possibility of appeasement and profiteering as an alternative to war. (For those in any doubt Guilty Men and Five Days in London: May 1940 (Unabridged) provide background).The plot is allegorical and to me, if not to many newspaper reviewer the powerful imagery of the vet, Glorious being filmed behind the gate, subsequent scenes, was shocking reference to the death camps. Prior to that, the way the "authorities" revealed the adopted daughter's actual nationality was redolent of the racial purifications.Poliakoff drops in little clues that built up nicely, the new vicar's aside, aunt aunt Elizabeth with her slightly sinister reactions to the adopted daughter was brillant, the weird Walter, others. Great cast, great perfomances though Bill Nighy was slightly going through the motions.A much darker film than it might seem, seemingly dismissable as whimsical if you are not paying enough attention. Great cinema.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ First rate film, i really enjoyed it!
*by H***W on 4 March 2012*

I thought that this was a very well acted film, with a superb cast to play such intriguing characters. Some have comment that it isn't an accurate depiction of history. I have to say, if I wanted a depiction of history, I would watch a documentary rather than a film. This is an excellent bit of scripting, and so well acted. I was thoroughly impressed. Romola Garai is beautiful and striking throughout and her array of emotion staggering. I really enjoyed it, and couldn't believe my luck when I spotted it so cheap on amazon!! I had missed it in the cinema, and I was gutted! So pleased that I got it. Would thoroughly recommend it to anyone who loves a bit of mystery and intrigue.

### ⭐⭐⭐ A Curate's Egg
*by A***N on 17 August 2010*

This is a very good-looking film with handsome costumes and a strong feel for the period. I bought it because I heard it described as "an enjoyable conspiracy thriller" and I suppose that's broadly true, but it is let down by the plot, which is sufficiently fantastical to make suspension of disbelief very difficult after the first thirty minutes or so. The standard of acting is very high, as one would expect from such a starry cast, but the script makes the characters behave implausibly and it is hard to feel empathy for them. Romola Garai in particular does a wonderful job, the director in his interview alludes to the fact that she is just waiting for that "killer" part, but I don't think Mr Poliakoff is going to be the one who provides it for her. Bill Nighy can do nothing with his role and is almost painful to watch, which says something for the characterisation. If you like the cast or are an admirer of the director's TV work, buy it by all means, but I don't think you'll be able to watch it without feeling disappointed - it could have been so much more. The DVD also features interviews and the option to watch the film again with a voice-over by Stephen Poliakoff and Romola Garai.
