Hyde Park on Hudson

Roger Michell's Hyde Park on Hudson (US, 2012) - The swirl of expectation and trepidation surrounding the vital first meeting between President Franklin D. Roosevelt and King George VI is transformed into an entertaining, sweetly sentimental period piece in Hyde Park On Hudson. A jaunty crowdpleaser that lifts the curtain on the private moments of public figures, it combines an easy charm with a sly wit and some finely judged performances. 2012NYFF, 2012TEL, 2012TOR. RATING: 8.
