In The Loop

Director: Armando Giovanni Iannucci
Cast: Peter Capaldi, Tom Hollander, Gina McKee, Anna Chlumsky


One of the selections for the Film Festival ‘From Blighty with Love’; I missed the first screening in Bangalore, and later the shows were cancelled in Bangalore because of poor viewership. I got a copy of the film from my local vendor, in my locality.

You can never forget Peter Capaldi, at least whatever he tries to say during the whole film. He firmly believes that if you do not use the expletives and that too innovate and improvise every time, you can hardly get things moving, anywhere wherever you are.
Gina McKee hardly feels any heat bcoz of the noise and din created by Peter at all, and carries on her duty w/o intermission.
Tom Hollander, is swarmed by so many and with so much, that he is lost. He has lost his touch with himself, and as he put ‘vacantly staring into space, as he has no thoughts’.
Anna Chlumsky – trying to keep a balance between work, her phone calls, her need to go up in her career, and some dose of fun along the way…
