I'm surprised no one has said anything.....but.....


I loved this film, really. It was a hidden treasure on my movie channels during the day, so I'm sure if doesn't get viewed often....

My only quip really tho is Ludo wearing the same jeans in every casual scene he was in. He also pretty much only worse the same 2 shirts. The tan sweater with holes and the blue jean button up. I know he's supposed to be a struggling artists who wouldn't have much money for things like that, but since this is a movie, they could have given the boy a second pair of trousers or jeans...

I don't know, but I cringed after a while. It was silly to me. Hmmm..

But it has cost me everything...

It has cost that of us both.

i didnt even notice he wore the same clothes.........too focused on his expressive face and the interactions between Joan Plowright

they were different clothes, but mostly they were all ragged and ripped. suited his character. trust me, mr friend took a knife to any pair of jeans given to him, then took them home and aged them himself.
did you like his suit, tie and shoes?

reply

I loved the suit, tie, and shoes! The smallness of the jacket in particular was awesomeness. I kept waiting for it to rip!

reply

Sorry, OP, but Ludo's clothes suited his character perfectly.

He's supposed to be a poor, struggling writer.
