    Well done.

    Finally a movie under 2 hours selling the message without historical exposition and over the top characters.

    Great comedy drama

    Misbehaviour is a great, reasonably balanced if a little formulaic comedy drama that's funny and relevant. Keira Knightly and Gugu Mbatha-Raw are both incredible. Jessie Buckley, Rhys Ifans and Greg Kinnear are all great. Philippa Lowthorpe's direction is also great, it's well filmed and well paced. The music by Dickon Hinchcliffe is really good and the soundtrack is good.

    Great Family Movie, Very Entertaining

    Misbehaviour

    I really enjoyed this movie from start to finished. The script tread a delicate line between the political and the comedic, and it did a fine job.

    At the time, and in our innocence and naïveté, we all thought this was an "honest" competition that merely was part of the panoply of family entertainment with It's A Knockout and The Two Ronnies. This script was careful to show how public consciousness needed awakening to the obvious objectification of women and the stultifying job opportunities that were open to women at the time.

    It was genuinely funny and really very heartwarming as the different characters came to grips with changing reality. Eric & Julie Morley were portrayed as the brains behind a global show and the success of that show was what guided their principles, they certainly did not believe their show exploited women, they believed is exalted female beauty for entertainment and gave the winners only dreamt of opportunities.

    The acting was crisp the styling inspired and it breathed in all the right places. Millennials will be shocked forgetting that intent must lay behind any form of discrimination and that this show was mainly watched by women at the time who loved it.

    I love this family movie and it reminds us that any form of objectification is a simplistic view of the world.

    nice

    A nice comedy about beauty contest, feminism, Bob Hope proposed, in fair way, by Greg Kienner and beautiful portrait of Dolores Hope by Lesley Manville. A reasonable social critic and inspired recreated atmosphere of the period.

    Important and engaging.

    'Misbehaviour' tells an important story well; it's fairly fast-moving, has some great performances and is always engaging. While there's nothing outstanding in the filmmaking department, it's all well-done and supports its narrative by letting the characters and messages lead the way. Speaking of its messages, it has a great overall pro-equality stance that goes deeper than its feminist roots, covering issues like social class and racism. In that regard, it's a very important film for today as it's sadly all too relatable to current affairs. The flick does have a slight issue with the story it wants to tell, though. It focuses on both the liberation group and the 'Miss World competitors', especially Mbatha-Raw's Jennifer Hosten. While this does give the chance to view things from different perspectives and allows for the exploration of more themes, it makes things feel slightly muddled. Perhaps it would've benefited from choosing one perspective to focus the story through to make things a little more streamlined. Still, both storylines are effective and the thing works as a whole, but it just feels like something which could have improved the proceedings slightly. Overall, though, it's certainly worth the watch. 7/10

    • Trivia
      Contrary to what is portrayed in the film, the real infiltrators did plan on starting the protest while the Miss World candidates were on stage. However, it was Bob Hope's misogynistic jokes that made them change their plans and start throwing their flour bombs at that very moment.
    • Goofs
      The radio announcer advertising the 1970 Miss World says that the eyes of the world are once more on London for the first time in nearly 30 years since the Coronation, which took place in 1953, only 17 years earlier.
