A Night Like This

Screening at this year's London Flare film festival, I originally booked tickets because of Alexander Lincoln's excellent performance in the 2022 movie In From the Side.

And Alexander Lincoln is again excellent, with a bigger range in this movie. On stage afterwards he said that growing up in Surrey helped him with the obnoxious side of his role in this film!

And Jack Brett Anderson is also brilliant, and his german accent is flawless. The audience were genuinely shocked that he isn't actually german!

The character of Daniel felt miscast though - the actor was just too old for the role.

The Q&A compere suggested that London was really the extra character in the movie. And whilst it sounds like a cliche - it's pretty accurate. With lots of scenes in Greenwich, and around the Thames - London is present in so much of the movie.

Go and see this impressive little film for great acting, and great scenes around London.
