The Ploughman's Lunch

THE PLOUGHMAN'S LUNCH (1983) - March 2, 2004
Jonathan Pryce is really good in this slow-moving, politically dominated story about Thatcher-era Britain. Tim Curry was also quite good Pryce's smarmy best friend. Unfortunately the movie is far too slow paced to ever really get into. A lot of long takes, which I liked. The movie was actually reasonably well directed, just... Too slow. I fell asleep for about ten minutes near the end, so I can't really judge it, but if I were to give it a rating I would give it a two. NO RATING
