Victoria & Abdul Blu-ray Review

Victoria & Abdul is a delightfully executed biographical portrait of two individuals whose mutual admiration brought them both pleasure and pain.

I loved this film and will pick up the Blu-ray at some point.

Thanks for the great review, Matt!

Wasn't this one of Tim Piggot-Smith's last films? A great loss.

 

[Matt Hough]

I believe so, and you're so right. We will be greatly missed.

Thank you for the excellent review Matt.
We thoroughly enjoyed Victoria and Abdul; great writing and performances and an overall exceptional piece of entertainment. I first encountered Judi Dench’s Work in the early 70’s on stage in London and was hooked on her skills. I do not believe I have ever seen her give a less than convincing performance in the intervening years.
I highly recommend this intelligent and engaging film.

So agree with you on Judi Dench. Dench starred in the first West End play I saw. I later saw her in the National Theatre's 50th anniversary gala, which also included Maggie Smith, Helen Mirren, Penelope Wilton, Derek Jacobi, Michael Gambon, etc. She's an international treasure.
