‘Mean Notes’ a UK Hit. ‘Most Shocking Film of the Year’

“Netflix’s No. 1 is the most shocking film of the year,” writes Tori Brazier in her article about the production. The film, directed by Thea Sharrock, is based on true events. The main roles on the screen are played by Olivia Coleman and Jessie Buckley.

The story of “Nasty Notes” dates back to the 1920s. Rose Gooding and Edith Swan live in Littlehampton in Sussex and are friends. However, a conflict soon breaks out between them. It was about obscene letters. Edith accused Rose of sending her hateful, vulgar notes. After receiving 19 such letters, the case was reported to the police. The argument led to a high-profile trial that shocked the press and the residents of Littlehampton at the time.

The film, which was created based on the story of an unusual conflict, was liked by both viewers and critics. The production can boast 80% on the Rotten Tomatoes scale from reviewers and a whopping 92% from the audience.

Foreign reviewers delighted with the new film with Olivia Colman

Reviews of the title unanimously praise the acting in the film and describe it as an extremely addictive fun. “The only productions that match this in terms of the use of vulgar language are typical crime and gangster pictures like Netflix’s “Uncut Diamonds”, Scorsese’s “Casino” or “The Wolf of Wall Street” – writes Tori Brazier.

“You can’t take your eyes off the magic that Buckel and Colman create on screen. They attract and charm viewers with their charisma and personality,” writes Mark Meszoros from The Morning Journal in his review. Polish critics are a bit more skeptical. “Few people can make a film about everything and nothing, important and trivial at the same time, like the British,” writes Bartek Czartoryski. “I warn you, there will be tears that you bought a ticket and you can’t get your money back,” adds Adriana Prodeus from Vogue.
