The Duchess or Taken - HRML

Hugo Brambles, 26 September, 2008 at 19:51 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 5

Anyone seen either film? I don't really like costume dramas but kind of want to see it as its filmed where I live so has local interest? Taken looks good.

    Haven't seen either, but I'd go for Taken, looks quite good

    I don't really fancy either, but Taken sounds utterly ludicrous. Then again, it might fall into the "so bad it's good" category, so I wouldn't necessarily write it off.

    I liked the Financial Times review (this is the whole thing!):

    But on the subject of films about missing daughters, I've heard Gone Baby Gone is surprisingly good - can anyone confirm?

    I don't really like costume dramas but a friend dragged me to the duchess the other day and I found it really quite gripping.

    If you've seen Ransom, don't bother with Taken. If not, it might be worth a punt. I've heard nothing but good things about The Duchess but haven't seen it yet as H won't go and my girls and I haven't been able to find a mutually convenient date!
