Belgravia, London, November 7th, 1974. Sandra Rivett, nanny of the aristocratic Lucan family, is found beaten to death. Shortly thereafter, the prime suspect, John Bingham, 7th Earl of Lucan, mysteriously disappears. When the manhunt begins, the subsequent scandal shakes the foundations of the British ruling class like never before.
Lucan -- an epic in miniature, a fantasy all the more poignant for its moral realities -- makes this a lesson worth learning.
This extraordinarily good looking, blood-soaked genre flick is stacked with a solid script, a talented and appealing cast, and complex fight sequences that are staged in the most unhurried and satisfying way
Pacing, velocity, and flow dont interest Lowery. He knows the effects he wants and, skilled as he is, knows how to get them. But are they worth getting?
