The critic is a gripping tale of ambition and deceit. Ian McKellen and Gemma Arterton star in a thrilling drama of theatrical ambition and betrayal.
In 1936 London, as fascism rises, critic Jimmy (McKellen) risks losing his job to editor David (Mark Strong) due to his writing style and personal life.
Amid Blackshirt violence and anti-LGBTQ raids, Jimmy schemes using Nina and David's desires to protect himself.
