Reviews

Neal Street's 'A' icon
"These three films were finely acted, intellectually compelling and intensely exciting"
The Telegraph
"On watching the opening scenes of BBC miniseries The Hollow Crown: The Wars Of The Roses, I only wished somebody had told me before how much better than their reputation Shakespeare's history plays are."
The Guardian
"What Cooke captures is the scope, the daring and the savage headlong rush of the poet's imagination, and that's not to be scoffed at."
The Telegraph
