Review of Scoop

Scoop (2024)
8/10
I love this kind of storytelling
26 April 2024
First of all: both Gillian Anderson and Rufus Sewell are both absolutely brilliant in this! Rufus -I'm long time fan, since the Charles II series- has all the mannerisms and the stupidity of this conceited man.(sorry, I'm a republican, I don't like our own royal family either😁) Being dutch, I had to look up Emily, to know what kind of status she has in the UK, but I saw the interview at the time and was impressed by the calm and the skill of this interviewer. Movies like this, like ' all the president's men' and 'the post' are very much to my taste and this one is another 'like' for me.

Billie Piper is also great as the somewhat papparazzi-like person, who nevertheless knows what 'sells'. BBC tv is a bit like NOS tv in the Netherlands: well behaved and somewhat dull, but trustworthy. That's exactly what is portrayed here.

As far as I'm concerned: great acting!
