Talking shop

David Hare's 'Turcs and Caicos' is a low key drama about international intelligence, dodgy businessmen and corrupt politicians. Bill Nighy plays a renegade gentleman spy who is strangely irresistible to women half his age; Helena Bonham Cater, meanwhile, is simply too glamorous to be serious in her role. Almost all of the key plot developments occur off-screen, and, as with most of Hare's work, there's a lot of talking around the subject that never quite gets to the point. What saves it is the quality of that talk: it's theatrical, but there's a beautiful rhythm to it. To compare it to the work of another playwright named David, namely David Mamet, the dialogue is a lot less stylised, but easier on the ear, almost poetic in places. And this is enough to make the piece stand out from the vast majority of contemporary drama.

he's the anti-bond and he is damn good

The other ratings much too low.

It is ironic that the country which gave us the James Bond character (with saucy characters like Pussy Galore) also gives us the 64 year old Nighy, so thin he could slip under a door, so civilized his harshest weapon is his language, and, if you wondering if this works, BY GEORGE it does.

A cast to die for including both Helena Carter and Winona Ryder, but it is once again Nighy who steals the show. I confess I have not seen as much of his work as I should have. But I remember his knack for comedy in Love Actually and his knack for horror in the Underworld series and I will never forget this dapper spy who, it seems, could stop a bullet with a stern stare if he had to.

And the bullet would have to apologize.

My only regret is that there are only three entries in the series.

Great acting, great writing, and great entertainment. What more do you want?

Following the money

When we last saw Johnny Worricker (Bill Nighy) he was standing at the airport wondering where to go next. He ended up in the Turks and Caicos, a Caribbean island not far from the coast of Florida and which seems to attract dicey businessmen with funny money.

Our renegade hero is soon clocked by Curtis Pelissier (Christopher Walken) who is CIA and is investigating a group of people who ripped off the US government during the war on terror. However one of the group, a loud mouthed right winger is murdered.

Into the mix arrives a smooth UK businessman who is good friends with the British Prime Minister and his assistant Margot Tyrrell (Helena Bonham Carter) who used to be a spy and close to Johnny.

Pelissier ropes in Johnny to snare these people which also includes a vulnerable hanger on Melanie Fall (Winona Ryder) but Johnny is unsure how far he can trust Pelissier.

With the sunshine in a Caribbean island and murder, I thought I was watching Death in Paradise for a moment! The locale and supremely fine acting makes this a really satisfying adventure. Because of the location shooting this zips along better than the others in the trilogy.

Walken and Ryder are the standouts here. Writer David Hare expressed his admiration of Walken the Shakespearean actor and here we see what he can do without a gun in his hand or pulling psycho faces. We know Pelissier is clever and astute but does he have his own agenda?

Ryder was a rising star of the 1990s but her career hit the skids by the end of the decade and it is only in the last few years she has become prominent again. This has been her best role for years where she balances vulnerability and strength. She has a good rapport with Bill Nighy.

Ralph Fiennes shows up briefly for just one scene but that is because this middle film sets Johnny up with unfinished business with the Prime Minister.
