Reviews
Equally strong, and providing a solid arc of friendship across Oscar’s travails, is Sheen as Robbie… There’s never been a better story about the misadventures of one of the world’s greatest writer… In support of Fry’s superb performance, a number of fine actors round out the cast: in addition to Jude Law, the highlights of the cast include Michael Sheen, Jennifer Ehle, Vanessa Redgrave and Tom Wilkinson
