Amazon.com In the hands of Peter Morgan (writer of The Queen and Frost/Nixon), the intertwined lives of a child murderess and an English lord become what can only be described as a moral thriller--a suspenseful story of evil and forgiveness. The Earl of Longford (Jim Broadbent, Iris, Topsy-Turvy) has devoted himself to helping prisoners. When he receives a letter from Myra Hindley (Samantha Morton, In America, Minority Report), he doesn't hesitate, though his wife argues that some crimes are beyond redemption; Hindley and her lover Ian Brady kidnapped and brutally murdered several children in Manchester, and their names provoke the same gut response that Jeffrey Dahmer's might prompt in America. But after meeting Hindley, Longford becomes convinced that she was under Brady's sway and fights for her parole, despite resistance from the media, the public, and his own family. Longford is riveting. In the hands of this fantastic cast (including Lindsay Duncan, Rome, as Longford's wife, and Andy Serkis, King Kong, in a chilling turn as Brady), Morgan's skillful script bubbles and seethes with hidden motives and self-deceptions. Broadbent's complete transformation into a man whose compassion and good intentions threaten to destroy him, coupled with Morton's astonishing vulnerability, give Longford a remarkable multilayered complexity, contrasting the committed faith of the advocate with the equally committed obsession of the serial murderer. --Bret Fetzer Product Description Longford (DVD)
