★★★★ "a wayward, unworldly fantasia, a four-leaf clover of a film – or even five-leaf " - The Guardian.
Adapted from the novel by Virginia Woolf, Night & Day is a witty and refreshingly unconventional period comedy set in London on the cusp of modernity. Katharine Hilbery is a talented astronomer with little interest in the traditional expectations of romance and marriage. As science, technology and social attitudes begin to reshape Edwardian society, she finds herself navigating questions of independence, ambition and personal freedom. Directed by Tina Gharavi and featuring a stellar ensemble cast including Haley Bennett, Jack Whitehall and Timothy Spall, this charming adaptation brings Woolf's sharp humour and keen social observation delightfully to life.
Before modern romance came modern independence. Based on a novel by Virginia Woolf, Night & Day follows an ambitious young astronomer determined to chart her own course. A witty, warm-hearted period comedy about love, freedom and changing times, set against the backdrop of Edwardian London.
