Jul 24th
Summer in February*

(GB 2013)            

In 1913 Captain Gilbert Evans mixes with the Lamorna artists' set, intending to court his friend Florence Carter-Wood, but she falls unwisely for the rakish artist and poet A.J. Munnings instead.
Elements of Edge of Love and The Manxman abound in this poignant, slightly over-sumptuous period drama based on a real-life love triangle, made as many British period films are nowadays in an assumed state of classical reverence, with occasional moments of cinematic flair or modern touches which don't always convince.
