The Reverend and Mrs Simpson (2023)
Interesting story, nice period settings but ...

Whilst I enjoyed the post-war sets and the story, the quality of line delivery was unfortunately rather inconsistent - quite weak at times. The film highlighted the feelings of the locals, somewhat understandably anti-German at that time but also showed the un-Christian, and indeed cruel behaviour of some church-goers towards an innocent woman and child. I wanted to really like it but many lines were rather oddly delivered- quite amateur dramatics rather that what I expected. The lady who played the housekeeper did a good job and at times, I wondered if she was quietly despairing at those sharing her scenes.
