Just back from Mr Turkey, sorry Mr Turner. When youre having to - TopicsExpress



          

Just back from Mr Turkey, sorry Mr Turner. When youre having to restrain yourself from yelling for Gods sake die at the screen, you know a movie is bloated, directionless & self congratulatory. Mike Leigh spent 10 years summoning up funds to make it & it felt like I spent 10 years watching it. No narrative arc, just a series of researched incidents strung together. And yeah, we get it. Turner grunted. Spall grunts, hacks, wheezes, gobbles but really doesnt inspire. Somewhere theres a brilliant film waiting to be made about how the son of a barber & a lunatic became arguably Britains greatest artist. This is not it.
