If you loved La gran escapada, try Un marido ideal
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Oliver Parker, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to La gran escapada, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Un marido ideal is
Here's a film doing its level best to prove Oscar Wilde's wit can survive anything. A politician is blackmailed over past sins, and seeks help from a louche friend with connections to the blackmailer. It's all charming costumes and perfectly delivered dialogue, even if the plot is mostly an excuse for both.
