Enid

Aroview: Sober biopic of famed children's author Enid Blyton is less than flattering in its portrayal with Bonham Carter giving a masterclass in cruelty.

This will leave a less than pleasant aftertaste for those who remember Blyton's work with fond nostalgia, yet there's no denying the performance from Bonham Carter, who plays the author as icy and nuts in turn, much to the dismay of her own poor children. A captivating portrait.
