Leave your thoughts about Dance with a Stranger.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertA film of astonishing performances and moody, atmospheric visuals. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyMiranda Richardson gives a brilliant performance as Ruth Ellis in Mike Newell's gloomy and dowbeat film noir, based on the life of the last British femme to be hanged for murder. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatAn unforgettable performance by Miranda Richardson. |
| User ReviewMark BA must see for any cinephile, especially those who cherish truly great acting. |
| User ReviewJason SGreat Movie!! I like Miranda richardson so i like the movie. Good storyline. Everyone should see it at some point in their life. P.S. it is a murder movie not suitable for small children!! |
| User ReviewDarryl Ci love this film for many reasons. one is the interplay of acting styles employed. richardson is taut, nervy and stylized like bette davis at her best. holm and everett are more relaxed but can coil and spring out when it's needed. they deliver! mike newell's direction is taut and very well paced. the screenplay by shelagh delaney is taut and well-written. and the film is visually stylezed like a film noir. just stunning all the way round! |
| User ReviewCarolyn HWatched it 20 times or more. Miranda Richardson is at her first and best stunning in this role! Dance with a Stranger song is one of my all time favourites! |
| User ReviewJonathan HA fine film, excellently scripted, with solid performances all round. Richardson and Holm are always excellent, but Everett too is particularly well-cast here. Attractive, charming, doomed by his fecklessness. Their tragic affair becomes entirely credible. A top Brit-flick! |
| User ReviewPrivate Udark intriguing movie. miranda richardson is sensational. |
| User ReviewGarry EIf you dont see anything else see this. Miranda Richardson is outstanding as Ruth. You almost feel as if you are in 1950's Britain it is that well made. |
