While I don't remember this being wholly successful, Dench & Blanchett squaring off is a sight to behold. And their bad behavior is delicious! #filmsky 📽

neutral · AI labelView post →Notes on a Scandal is a lesbophobic piece of crap, but it is passably a film. Kissing Jessica Stein -- which buried New Queer (USian) Cinema by mainstreaming non-threatening white gays -- is barely even a Sex & the City / Will & Grace episode.

neutral · AI labelView post →Movie 9/2025: Notes on a Scandal (Richard Eyre, 2006). I KNOW. The 'evil lesbian' trope is so tiring but this film is so good (and heartbreaking). Fireworks from start to finish with Dench, Blanchett and oh ... Bill Nighy! Seen countless times. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

neutral · AI labelView post →I saw the film Notes on a Scandal & enjoyed it. So I read the book. I felt the book was far better. The film changed the book's ending; if you change the ending, you didn't really understand the point of the book. Though I'm glad I saw the film; otherwise I wouldn't have discovered the book.

Whether she's the fierce M in Skyfall or the manipulative Barbara in Notes on a Scandal, Dench never fails to captivate us with her powerful character portrayals.

I was very impressed with this film, which combines two huge and very talented actresses and a script full of tension and very well developed. It's not something new or original, and there are a lot of relatively tense films that are set in a school environment. I can quote one that I saw recently, and that I remembered while watching this film: “The Children’s Hour”. Alright, the movie is about a hypothetical lesbian…

neutral · AI labelView post →This is one of those films like a great pasta dish where everything is just right but somehow you still don't feel the restaurant is justified charging $21.95 for a plate of noodles and tomato sauce. The direction is top notch, Cate Blanchett as Sheba Hart is great and Bill Nighy supporting just works. As much as I usually adore Judi Dench's acting, I thought she was a little too one-dimensional in this role. But given her choice, she executed the role with the usual Dench precision. This is a…
