As someone who is steeped in reading about the Bloomsbury Set I was keen to watch this film but I couldn't get over the very strange casting, I had no problem with the acting although I did get irritated by Elizabeth Debicki constantly staring into space. The film was so slow it almost came to a standstill. Added to which, Vita was known to be a tall, manly woman but Gemma Arterton as Vita nipping at Virginia's heels was almost comic, like Little and Large. Rupert Penry Jones was wasted as Harold Nicholson and who on earth was behind the casting of Adam Gillen as Duncan Grant should get another job. He seemed to be playing the same part as he did in Benidorm, twitchy and comic.
All in all it was a disappointment .
