Notes on a Scandal
This was my first free film (i now work in a cinema!!) so it was exciting anyway. The actual film was brilliant. It is a twisted view of a teacher who has a relationship with an underage student and her over obsessive friend who takes advantage of the knowledge. It was going to be hard to go wrong with Judi Dench and Cate Blanchett, and although the story itself was twisted and strange and creepy it was a truly exceptional film.
It had a very natural look to it, no glamour or bright colour, just an every day school, with everyday people. I didnt know Judi Dench could have so much evil in her although i still came away pitying her more than hating her. Definatly worth seeing if purely for the performances, but it is creepy, so be warned!!
