Across the Lake (1988 TV Movie)
10/10
Unsung and Forgotten - Why?
2 January 2015
This TVM is not listed on Anthony Hopkins Wiki page - why?? It is a very true representation of the run up to Donald Campbell's final, fatal attempt at the water speed record on Coniston on the 4th January 1967. The film is very evocative and really makes you feel like a fly on the wall of what was happening at the time. Donald Campbell deserves to be remembered and Anthony Hopkins' portrayal is second to none and one that I feel deserves so much more recognition that it appears to get. This is a wonderful film and I urge anyone with an interest in the great British resolve to overcome, to watch it - it is definitely up there with the World's Fastest Indian and is a credit to Anthony Hopkins.
