Stephen Fry’s Bright Young Things is a champagne-drenched

Stephen Fry’s Bright Young Things is a champagne-drenched rollercoaster that winks at the Jazz Age with eyeliner smudged from last night’s scandal. It pirouettes between camp and catastrophe, like Noël Coward on a bender with Oscar Wilde’s ghost. The dialogue snaps, crackles, and sashays with a cigarette holder in one hand and heartbreak in the other. Fry captures the brittle brilliance of Waugh’s world, but filters it through a glittery madness uniquely his own. Criminally under-loved, it’s a glitter bomb of a film that deserves to be shouted through a gramophone at dawn. The critics forget the movie deals with gilded '30s youth dancing on a carpet of flowers with a chasm of WWII beneath them. Fry is a genius.

Every now and then I watch a film

Every now and then I watch a film that I enjoy so much I feel the need to immediately watch it again. This was one of those. Engaging, fast paced, thoughtful, witty. Absolute Must-See!

Probably the best film I watched in October

Probably the best film I watched in October. It is bright and exciting, the acting is at its height. The film shows the life of boheme English youth aristocracy in the interwar period, and perfectly reflects the atmosphere of those years.
