Summer in February

#1 Post by ISMADDER » Thu May 09, 2013 10:41 am

SUMMER IN FEBRUARY is set in the years running up to the First World War and focuses on the wild and bohemian Lamorna Group, dominated by the charismatic Alfred Munnings. The incendiary anti-Modernist Munnings, now one of Britain’s most sought-after artists, is at the heart of a complex love triangle, also involving aspiring young painter Florence Carter-Wood and Gilbert Evans, the land agent in charge of the Lamorna estate. True – and deeply moving – the story is played out against the timeless beauty of the Cornish coast, in the far West of England, beyond the reach of London and its stifling conventions.

Unfortunately it clashes with The Iceman and then clashes with This Is The End.

Hopefully other dates will come up :)

The Mail on Sunday have this film in tomorrow's paper (2nd June) for next Sunday 9th June at various Odeons.

I went to see it (Times +) on Thursday. It was a character study. Personally I thought she needed her legs slapping. Be interested to know what others think.

Suddenly regret freeing my Monday for this (I really can't recall why I wanted to see this in the first place)...

More the kind of thing you'd expect to see on TV on a sunday night.

Snorefest. So boring, so unimaginitive, such unlikeable characters. This was a slog to sit through. Perhaps the character complexity is portrayed better in the novel, but the characters on the film were so one-dimensional and unsympathetic. So dull that I couldn't event appreciate the scenery. 2/10.

The trailer also reveals 3/4 of the story, WTF?!

I thought the film I saw tonight was absolutely excellent!

Oh hang on, I didn't see Summer in February, I skipped it after the reviews and went to see Populaire instead. :shifty: o/

It wasn't that bad...but it wasn't particularly good either.

The first thirty minutes or so weren't great (being introduced to pretty pretentious group of individuals :wall: ) but the mid section of the movie was actually okay as a nice amount of quiet tension developed between the central characters.

However, I will admit the final part of this flick fell into cliché city and consequently dragged a bit too much for my tastes.

Overall it wasn't terrible but it certainly wasn't my sort of movie so I'll give it a forgettable but inoffensive 5/10...
