The Reckoning (2023)
9/10
Spine-chilling by Steve Coogan
14 November 2023
An extraordinary performance by Coogan, proper sinister. Also, he is uncannily authentic as the public Savile, could almost have been the monster. It must have been a tough, tough part for Coogan to play but, as he said himself, the story needed telling.

It's quite extraordinary how Savile created and sustained such a career. I was a child in the 60's and a teenager in the 70's and always, always found the man to be creepy and disturbing. I just don't get how EVERYONE couldn't see it.

Huge credit must be given to the courageous victims who appeared in person. That cannot have been easy. Here's hoping their brave contributions helped them at least a little.
