Notes On A Scandal - Film Trailer
This new film, starring Dame Judi Dench and Cate Blachett looks like an incredibly well acted drama. Adapted from Zoe Heller’s Man Booker Prize nominated 2003 novel of the same name, it’s a mean psychological thriller concerning deceit and betrayal. Judi stars as the machiavellian school teacher Barbara Covett, while Cate is a quiet family woman, whose life is changed when she starts an ill-conceived affair with a 15 year old pupil. Judi’s character uses the knowledge of this affair to further her relationship with Cate, in ominous and nasty ways.
With two of the best female British actors ever and a stellar suporting cast including Bill Nighy and Emma Kennedy, this looks like a must see for fans of the genre. It was available at limited cinemas around Christmas and is now on at cinemas nationwide.

I saw this movie a couple weeks ago and was hoping for some hot Blachett on Dench action. Sorry to disapoint but there was none to be had. oh well, maybe Helen Miren and Angelina Jolie will do something similar.

Pretty much anything with Judy Dench in it is wonderful. Are you planning to see the film soon? I ‘ve rug rats at home so I have to plan out my grown up movie viewing. I’ll await the full review from your site.

I don’t want to see Dench in any sort of action, that would put me off my dinner!
I may go see the film soon, bt there are so many good movies on the horizon, I have to pick and choose.
