The Unloved (2009)

Posted on 07:01 by uthpa
Highly Recommended
UK
Television Film
Director: Samantha Morton
Writers: Tony Grisoni, Samantha Morton
Cinematographer: Thomas Townend
Cast: Molly Windsor, Lauren Socha, Robert Carlyle, Susan Lynch, Craig Parkinson, Andrea Lowe, Karl Collins, Johann Myers, Michael Socha, Darren Campbell, Kerry Stacey

Morton’s outstanding directorial debut – an ethereally beautiful, achingly sad, and painfully honest look at the life of an abused eleven-year-old girl, who has recently been taken into care – would suggest that the actress’s time spent in front of the camera may have been merely an apprenticeship, served in order to bring us this wonderful, sensitive film-maker with a delicate touch to rival Terence Davies and Lynne Ramsay – wonderful.
