Happy Boxing Day! Today is the day youve been waiting for, MR TURNER is out in cinemas nationally! MR. TURNER explores the last quarter century of the great if eccentric British painter J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851). Profoundly affected by the death of his father, loved by a housekeeper he takes for granted, he forms a close relationship with a seaside landlady with whom he eventually lives incognito in Chelsea, where he dies. Throughout this, he travels, paints, stays with the country aristocracy, straps himself to the mast of a ship so that he can paint a snowstorm, and is both celebrated and reviled by the public and by royalty.
