The Last Hangman (2005)

The Last Hangman: Directed by Adrian Shergold. With Simon Armstrong, Ann Bell, Nicholas Blane, Clive Brunt. The life and times of Albert Pierrepoint – Britain’s most prolific hangman.

“Other writers have outlined what this film is about – Albert Pierrepoint, Britainu0026#39;s last hangman – so I shanu0026#39;t repeat a synopsis. The subject matter of the film is very dark, but what humanises it are the great performances from Juliet Stevenson and especially Tim Spall. The 8 is for the quality of the acting and the film is well worth seeking out for this alone.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;ve not seen many reviews of the film so I hope you will forgive me if I post details of one:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ehttp://www.thefirstpost.co.uk/index.php?menuID=4u0026amp;subID=471u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eYou can also view a clip alongside the reviewu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHope this helps”
