‘She Will’ Review
Stars: Alice Krige, Malcolm McDowell, Rupert Everett, Kota Eberhardt, Amy Manson, Olwen Fouere, Daniel Lapaine, John McCrea, Jonathan Aris, Kenneth Collard, Joanna Bacon | Written by Charlotte Colbert, Kitty Percy | Directed by Charlotte Colbert

As much as I love the blood and guts of gory horror, the laughs of comedy horror or the big-budgeted genre flicks, my favourite sub-genre of horror at the moment is the slow-burn films, full of atmosphere that usually have an ending worth waiting for. She Will looked like it was going to be one of those movies.

After a double mastectomy, Veronica heads to a healing retreat in rural Scotland. She goes with her young nurse, Desi, expecting to be alone for the retreat but instead ends up at a group event. Clearly not comfortable with other people being there she needs persuading to stay and Desi and she become closer. While there she learns to

Daniel Lapaine continues his Aussie comeback in ‘Five Bedrooms’

Daniel Lapaine continues his Aussie comeback in ‘Five Bedrooms’
Daniel Lapaine as Lord “Lofty” Lofthouse.

When UK-based actor Daniel Lapaine was asked by his mate Tim Minchin to play his aggrieved brother in Lingo Pictures/Foxtel’s Upright, he was both surprised and delighted.

Surprised because it was his first role in an Australian production since he moved to the UK 20 years ago.

While he was filming Upright, director Tony Tilse and producer Fiona Eagger offered him the part of Lord “Lofty” Lofthouse in Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears, which opens on Thursday.

This week he began filming the second season of Hoodlum Entertainment/Network 10’s Five Bedrooms, directed by Peter Templeman, Fadia Abboud and Shirley Barrett.

“It was the longest comeback in Australian screen history,” Lapaine tells If. “I had been working mostly in theatre in London but also had the chance to appear in series like Catastrophe with Sharon Horgan and The Durrells. It

Daniel Lapaine and Essie Davis joust again in ‘Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears’

Daniel Lapaine and Essie Davis joust again in ‘Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears’
Rupert Penry-Jones and Daniel Lapaine.

When Daniel Lapaine and Essie Davis were fellow students at Nida in the early 1990s, one less arduous element of the course was fencing lessons.

Neither could have imagined, all these years later, they would be jousting again in Every Cloud Productions’ Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears.

Lapaine plays rich aristocrat Lord “Lofty” Lofthouse, an old friend of Essie’s Phyrne Fisher, in the Tony Tilse-directed murder-mystery/adventure/romance, which opens on Thursday.

Phyrne and Shirin Abbas (2016 Vca graduate Isabella Yella), a young Bedouin girl whom she rescued from prison in Jerusalem, go to the UK to stay at the manor owned by Lord and Lady Lofthouse (Jacqueline McKenzie) and Lofty’s younger brother Jonathon (Rupert Penry-Jones).

“It was great fun to play a character who has a high opinion of himself, a good-time boy who likes a drink, which can get him into trouble,

Nathan Page and Essie Davis at the premiere.

More than 1,200 people including numerous Phryne Fisher look-alikes flocked to the sold-out premiere of Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears at the Hayden Orpheum Picture Palace on Thursday night.

Essie Davis and Nathan Page spoke at each of the three public sessions – where applause erupted from the opening scene – and at two VIP/media screenings.

Davis told fans it is a joy to play the character and if enough people pay to see the film “it will give us the opportunity to make more.”

Among the emotional responses, one woman told the producer, Every Cloud Productions’ Fiona Eagger and writer/executive producer Deb Cox, that watching the TV series had “saved her life.”

She did not elaborate but Cox surmises that many women feel “invisible” and depressed and can draw strength from Phyrne.

The relationship between Essie Davis’ Phryne Fisher and Nathan Page’s Jack Robinson breaks new ground in Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears.

That’s according to Tony Tilse, who directed Every Cloud Productions’ murder-mystery/adventure/romance, which premieres in Australian cinemas on February 27.

“The lovely tension between Phryne and Jack is always there but the two of them on screen together is just magic in a way we haven’t seen before,” Tilse tells If.

“Nathan is fantastic, absolutely up there with Essie’s performance level. It’s beautiful to watch.”

Tilse, who was the set-up director of Ms Fisher’s Murder Mysteries, was the natural choice by producer Fiona Eagger and scriptwriter/executive producer Deb Cox

‘Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears’ Trailer: Cult Favorite Returns in Acorn TV’s Film — Exclusive

‘Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears’ Trailer: Cult Favorite Returns in Acorn TV’s Film — Exclusive
When we left Phryne Fisher five years ago after the third season of “Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries,” the Australian Broadcasting Corp.’s glamorous Jazz Age private eye was jetting off in her own biplane, flying away from a bunch of stylishly solved murders and a complicated relationship with Melbourne Detective Inspector Jack Robinson.

This, obviously, was just a thoroughly and totally unacceptable way to end the show.

Based on the 20-book series of “Miss Fisher” mysteries by Kerry Greenwood, fans knew there were plenty more stories waiting to be embodied by the cult favorite character, played by Essie Davis. Another season of the television show wasn’t in the cards at ABC, so producers Deb Cox and Fiona Eagger, via their production company Every Cloud Productions, turned to Kickstarter to raise funds for a movie-length installment — which promptly almost tripled its fundraising goal and started filming.

Release set for ‘Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears’ soundtrack

Greg J. Walker’s original motion picture soundtrack of Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears will be released on February 21, six days before the film opens in Australian cinemas.

Composer, recording artist, arranger and producer Walker wrote the score for the TV series produced by Every Cloud Productions.

For the movie which follows Essie Davis’ Miss Phyrne Fisher as she heads to Jerusalem to fight injustice and oppression, he composed an orchestral score with new, exotic instruments to match the escapades on screen.

Walker used Lawrence of Arabia and the Indiana Jones movies as key musical references as well as the cheeky spirit of the 1920s.

“I had to, in some ways, start from scratch and get out of my comfort zone; there was a long period of searching for the right musical keys to unlock this one,

Essie Davis dressed for success in ‘Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears’

Essie Davis as Phryne Fisher.

Essie Davis sports an array of dashing outfits as the heroine in Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears, which opens in Australia on February 27 and starts streaming on Acorn TV in the Us on March 23.

Costume designer Margot Wilson created 15 different looks for Phryne Fisher as the sleuth shows her prowess at fencing, jumps from a cliff onto a train and through windows, dances the tango, flies a plane and drives a car.

Wilson also enjoyed swapping the detective suit traditionally worn by Nathan Page’s Inspector Jack Robinson for a safari suit made from linen table cloths.

“Jack would have looked ridiculous in a heavy suit in the desert. The linen safari suit moves him more towards Phryne visually,” Margot says.

Roadshow has released a selection of stills of the movie directed by Tony Tilse, scripted by Every Cloud Productions’ Deb Cox and produced by Fiona Eagger.

Nathan Davis and Essie Davis in Palm Springs.

The creators of Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears were always confident the movie would appeal to the legion of Essie Davis’ Phryne Fisher fans, but what about those who have never seen the TV series?

Any doubts soon vanished during the world premiere of the 1929-set adventure-murder mystery-romance, the first of three sold-out screenings at the Palm Springs International Film Festival.

Director Tony Tilse likened the atmosphere to a rock concert as 865 people whooped, hollered and laughed and gave a standing ovation at the end.

“People who had never seen the TV series told me how much they enjoyed it,” Tilse, who was set-up director on the series, tells If. “The enthusiasm and love for the film was overwhelming and very humbling.”
