So has anyone else seen this yet? It looks to be a major contender for Best Picture at the Oscars (along with The Social Network and True Grit it's probably frontrunner) and Colin Firth already looks nailed on for Best Actor.
As for the film itself, it's a bit pompous at times and like all films based on real events it probably plays somewhat fast and loose with the truth, but it's very good and the acting is unsurprisingly first class, especially from Firth and Rush who bounce off each other very well. And it's very funny in places. Well worth seeing anyway.
