David Thewlis Cheeky Q&A -
Summary:
David Thewlis (A.K.A. Remus Lupin) will be holding a press conference following the showing of his film, Cheeky, at the London Film Festival on November 1st. No word on whether or not he will discuss his role in PoA.
Article:
avid Thewlis will be holding a Q&A session after the screening of Cheeky on Saturday 1 Nov with cast member Sean Ward.
A last-minute addition to the festival programme, Cheeky is a tender and funny first feature. In addition to directing, Thewlis takes the lead role as Harry, a quiet toyshop owner who leads a simple life in an unremarkable northern town until the sudden death of his beloved wife turns everything upside down. Desperate to be reunited with his estranged son, and believing it to be his wife’s last wish, he is persuaded to appear on a popular but excruciatingly crass TV show 'Cheeky', where the contestants are quizzed on their general knowledge before being let loose to insult each other with ever increasing gusto.
Thewlis gets the tone of the film just right, underscoring the themes of grief and reconciliation with no small degree of wit, and also finding space to work in some lovely sideswipes about the regional view of our glittering metropolis. Hugely understanding of and sympathetic toward his characters (played by a cast which also includes the redoubtable Lesley Sharp and Ian Hart), this is an affectionate and life affirming tale, and a more than auspicious debut.
