Mr. Jones
“With a cast impressively headed by James Norton, and cinematography that captures the bleakness of winter and deprivation to grimly palatable effect, Holland’s drama comes across in part as a meticulously mounted, sometimes solemn history lesson.”~Jonathan Romney, Screen Daily
Aroview: Strikingly bold political thriller from eminent Polish director Agnieszka Holland (IN DARKNESS), loosely based on the true story of ambitious Welsh journalist Gareth Jones, who travelled to the Soviet Union in 1933 and uncovered the truth about the Holodomor, the man-made famine which caused a genocide in the Ukraine.
