1920's England??!
12 April 2024
1920's? Nah. This film is very much of 2024. Here's a film for "Modern Audiences", more DEI box ticking than you can shake a stick at.

Half the cast is non-white despite this being decades before the Windrush Generation changed the racial make-up of the country so pretty much every scene looks ridiculous and inaccurate.

Black police officers? An Asian WPC? In 1920's England?! Really?

Even better a black High Court Judge - in England in the 1920's!! Completely ridiculous. This sort of tokenism just takes any viewer out of the story.

And, but of course, every single white male character is negative; either cruel or cruel and stupid.

Brilliant, well done.
