Stanley Tucci and Emma Thompson play a married couple in moving drama The Children Act.
Oh, sorry, do you want more than that delicious and exciting pairing?
OK. Based on a book by Ian McEwan (Atonement, On Chesil Beach,) The Children Act revolves around a judge who has to decided on a case of a young man who needs a blood transfusion but his parents are Jehovah’s Witnesses and it’s against their religion. At the same time, the judge has to deal with her crumbling marriage.
With what looks to be one of Emma Thompson’s greatest performances, we’re excited to see where this film goes. It also stars Dunkirk’s Fionn Whitehead so that’s very exciting. What do you think?
The Children Act is out 24th August!
