Rodney Hallworth = The Safe Character
Pros: The film itself is well made. Colin Firth, Rachel Weisz, and Thewlis do their job and their due, no more and no less, is not a difficult film to see. After all, I am grateful that David continues in the industry after almost 30 years of artistic career, here he personifies Rodney the press director who is charged with following the story of amateur sailor Donald Crowhurst (Colin Firth) during the Golden Globe Race in 1968.
Cons: His character is not risky at all. If anyone has seen the films that David has made in recent years you will notice that he lately plays the typical English refined man, so he is very linear. This is perhaps the weakest film ever seen of him, you won't miss anything important anyway. Before seeing it I had already read several reviews on the internet talking about it and they were negative comments so, after all, the film didn't disappoint me at all because I knew I wouldn't like it in the end. If you are just a fan of some of the actors that appear here, you love biographical films, you are very cinematic or just have a lazy day and you have nothing to see this can be a good choice.
