Weeknight Watchearly ratingWhy it’s a Weeknight Watch
With soft box office and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at people who need a good giggle and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Very British, in all the best ways. Shelve it next to Withnail & I or Babylon.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 41 min.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1970: an older pace and style.
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
A naive couple leave their small town for success in London's adult entertainment culture.
