It's tricky pinpointing the start of this mini renaissance, but Andrea Arnold's Red Road (2006), starring Kate Dickie as a grieving security guard felt like the start. Two years later, there was Eran Creevy's refreshingly understated thriller Shifty. Both films looked like they cost the price of a takeaway, but they had not only energy, warmth and wit, but genuine tension and credible characters. You cared about these people, and the film-makers made ingenious use of their tiny budgets. Arnold followed up Red Road, with her stark, raw Fish Tank, which featured Katie Jarvis as a troubled Essex teenager, and the auteur's recently released Wuthering Heights is equally inventive and compelling. (Ben Walsh)The Record has an article on young ones and reading:
When [Dr. Aïda Hudson's] small elementary school converted a broom closet into a library, Hudson devoured its contents. She still remembers the book that led to her current career. “It was Jane Eyre. I was 12 years old and I read it through and wanted to teach it and know everything about it. If you want to give a child a good novel, you give them Jane Eyre.” (Melanie Ferrier)Jane Eyre 2011 is reviewed by Monotemáticos FM (in Spanish), Unsung Films and MoBlog: Mo's 100-Word Movie Reviews. Sugarpeach is reminded of some elements of Jane Eyre by The Merchant’s Daughter by Melanie Dickerson.
