The Critic (Cert 15)
Set in 1930s London, The Critic revolves around a feared theatre critic for the Daily Chronicle named Jimmy Erskine (Ian McKellen), a tabloid newspaper now owned and run by Viscount David Brooke (Mark Strong) after the death of his father.
Erskine delights in writing vitriolic reviews of plays that he believes fall short of his high standards, despite requests from Brooke to tone it down. Brooke wants to get rid of the critic, so does an actress Nina Land (Gemma Arterton) who has been devastated by his damaging theatrical reviews. The critic’s determination to survive ensures that the other characters are caught in a web of blackmail, deceit and murder.

When Bill, himself the child of a single mother, finds a bruised and shivering young woman locked in the convent coalshed on a bitterly cold December day, he knows that any action on his part will cost him dear.
