Disclaimer is a new seven-part miniseries written and directed by Alfonso Cuarón (Gravity (2013), starring Cate Blanchett, Lesley Manville, Sacha Baron Cohen and Indira Varma.

It’s a drama/mystery/thriller that follows Catherine Ravenscroft, a television documentary journalist whose work reveals the transgressions of others. Except now, the focus is on her transgressions

Oh, oh. What did she do? I want to find out, and I’m curious to see Cohen and Blanchett acting opposite one another.

If you were thinking that this trailer plays very much like the kind of story based on novel/book; you’d be right ,and the book in question is Disclaimer by Renée Knight.

Kevin Kline, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Hoyeon, Louis Partridge, Adam Szabo, Whitney Kehinde, Daniele Nicoli, Leila George, Liv Hill, Youssef Kerkour, Christiane Amanpour and Dorotea Mercuri also star.

Ordinary Love (2019), Liam Neeson, Lesley Manville

Liam Neeson, Lesley Manville and David Wilmot are the stars of Ordinary Love, the new Lisa Barros D’Sa and Glenn Leyburn-directed drama/romance about an everyday couple with a remarkable love.

A couple whose endearing devotion is clearly seen after a breast cancer diagnosis. One that sets them on a path to find the humour and grace to survive a year of adversity.

I’m ready to see this beautiful version of love and can’t wait to watch Neeson in this non-action movie role.

Is this movie likely to make all single people feel more single than ever before? Absolutely! So, let’s get ready to ‘suffer’ for this promising piece of art.

One more thing, unsurprisingly, perhaps, but I simply can’t see the words ‘ordinary love’ and not instantly think of Sade’s beautiful classic song, No Ordinary Love. You’re welcome.

Fo Cullen, Chloë Ní Dhúada, Matthew Sharpe, Vivien Monory, Stella McCusker, Desmond Edwards, Maggie Cronin, Melanie Clark Pullen, Geraldine McAlinden, Lalor Roddy, Esh Alladi and Amit Shah also star.

Ordinary Love Release Dates: December 6th, 2019 (UK); …2019 (US)…

PHANTOM THREAD (2017): New Trailer For The Last Daniel Day Lewis Movie, Also Starring Lesley Manville…

October 23, 2017 Giadreams (themoviemylife.com) 4 Comments

Written/directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, Phantom Thread, starring Daniel Day-Lewis and Lesley Manville, is a drama set in the fashion world of 1950s London. Day-Lewis plays a dressmaker commissioned to design for members of high society and the royal family.

I’d given up on the possibility of a new Daniel Day-Lewis film. Especially since he announced his retirement from acting earlier this summer.

Clearly, he must have shot this movie before then, because he doesn’t seem like the kind of man to announce something like retirement and not absolutely mean it. I could, of course, be completely wrong.

As for this trailer, I like the way it builds into something I didn’t expect, and I can’t wait to savour Day-Lewis’s apparently final performance.

Phantom Thread Release Dates: December 25th, 2017 (US); February 2nd, 2018 (UK)…

HAMPSTEAD (2017): New Trailer From Diane Keaton, Brendan Gleeson, James Norton…

Hampstead (2017), Diane Keaton, Brendan Gleeson

Read my spoiler-free movie review of Hampstead (2017)

Hampstead is the new drama set in Hampstead, London. A film that stars Diane Keaton, Brendan Gleeson and James Norton. Directed by Joel Hopkins, it’s a story of unexpected love.

My curiosity about Hampstead is fuelled by the hope that it’s fun and funny in a way that’s reminiscent of It’s Complicated (2009).

Additionally, Hampstead, London, is a beautiful area I’ve been to several times. Now I’m excited to experience it on film for what is likely the very first time.
