Mirren and David Threlfall play the parents of the boy who grows up to be the lonely “Birdman”.

When the Whales Came (1989)Ī worthy and slightly lifeless adaptation of the Michael Morpurgo children’s novel. A misfire, although Mirren does her best. Kevin Williamson’s high school satire has Mirren as the hated meanie teacher, Mrs Tingle, who is kidnapped by her pupils.
DAFTAR FILM BIOSKOP 2015 TV
Hal Hartley’s bland and whimsical film about a supposed “monster” living in Iceland features a forgettable Mirren as a hardbitten TV news executive. Mirren has the hauteur on autopilot as the Michelin-starred restaurant boss facing off with Om Puri’s Indian establishment. Critical Care (1997)Ī laboured satire on privatised medicine, with Mirren as the head nurse, Stella, and James Spader as a doctor troubled by qualms of conscience about coma patients kept alive to keep the insurance payments rolling in. Winchester (2018)Ī very silly performance from Mirren in an unscary movie, playing Sarah Winchester, the tormented widow of the inventor of the rifle. Mirren plays sexy singing policewoman Alice Rage, the swansong for a visibly ill Peter Sellers, reprising his regrettable “yellowface” turn as evil Chinese genius Fu Manchu. Mirren has a walk-on in this cult Italian pulp thriller. The Syndicate: A Death in the Family (1970) Mirren goes into self-parody mode as the Austrian Jewish woman battling to recover her family’s artworks, stolen by the Nazis. In the original, the lovable lush had a butler played by John Gielgud now he has a nanny, played by Mirren. Mirren plays the lovable lush’s nanny – a truly terrible role, in this truly terrible remake of the Dudley Moore comedy.
