Bolan's Shoes
Ian Puleston-Davies
Starring Timothy Spall, the film follows the tumultuous journey from the height of T. Rex mania in 1970s Liverpool to the present-day poignancy of what would have been Marc Bolan's 75th birthday.
Odessa Young plays Jane, the maid at a grand house ruled over by the sad Mr and Mrs Niven (Colin Firth and Olivia Colman) whose children were killed in the war.
Jane is enjoying an affair with a well-born young neighbour who is destined to marry someone else. This is a languorous, dreamy film that draws you into an irresistible and sensual story that is beautifully shot and acted.
