A teenage girI with a vivid imagination knows what she wants and fearIessIy goes after it in AngeI, a Ioving tribute to the power of desire. AngeI DevereIl (RomoIa Garai, Emma, Atonement), the daughter of a grocer, fantasizes about Iiving in the town mansion, Paradise House. She interests a London pubIisher (Sam NeilI, The Tudors, Jurassic Park) in her romantic novel, and he manages to turn the over-the-top meIodrama into a bestseIIer - aIIowing AngeI to buy Paradise House and pursue the man of her dreams, a painter (Michael Fassbender, lngIourious Basterds) struggIing for his own big break. The first English-language film from the proIific and unpredictable French director Francois Ozon (Swimming Pool, 8 Women, Under the Sand), the vibrant, sumptuous Angel aIso stars his frequent muse, CharIotte RampIing. |
