   It doesn’t all come off. Some of the twists stretch credulity, even for a story this frothy, and the ending is rather feeble. Yet the performances teeter enjoyably between drama and comedy, and some of the details in Winn and James Handel’s script are hilariously telling. The twitchy Sarah, who loathed Jessica for flirting with Tom ...

   Mar 25, 2024 · Directed by Matt Winn, who co-wrote the screenplay with James Handel, The Trouble with Jessica is a very British dark comedy-drama, with an essence more on the drama – alongside quite the number of whip-smart remarks that (in our UK setups) would easily slide into the conversation at an upper-middle-class dinner party and, yes, that class system is important in this particular context.

   May 31, 2024 · The production is self-consciously theatrical, taking clear inspiration from Joe Orton’s Loot that at some points feel overdone. But a stellar cast brings the production to life: Shirley Henderson is perfectly shrill as Sarah, the long-suffering wife about to be undone by her husband’s poor business decision, and the one who takes the lead in hatching the plan that will save them from ...

   Apr 3, 2024 · Cons. Four privileged Londoners are put through the wringer by a troublesome corpse in the sardonic black comedy The Trouble with Jessica, a darkly enjoyable film that combines the intricate plotting of a well-oiled farce with fangs-bared social satire. The body in question belongs to the eponymous Jessica (Indira Varma), who has tagged along ...

   Apr 3, 2024 · Watch on. Some of the film’s tension revolves around revealing the nature of that history — the rest revolves around a group of supposedly intelligent people making terrible choices involving a dead body. While that part of the scenario may be hard to swallow, the characters and their reactions feel frighteningly, often frustratingly, real ...

   Is the trouble with Jessica a good movie?

   Does 'the trouble with Jessica' really work?

   Is the trouble with Jessica a cruel movie?

   • The Trouble with Jessica is a cruel film – and that’s entirely fine, because it’s been smartly populated with all the archetypes of insufferableness. Jessica, who Varma plays with a toss of her hair and a finger gently circling her wine glass rim, seeks power in provocation.

   Is the trouble with Jessica a moral compass?

   • The Trouble with Jessica gives every actor the chance to revel in their character’s troubled minds, with Henderson, Sewell and Varma particularly standing out. But this is also an observation on society, and the misshapen moral compass of some (not all) people with money and the things they might well consider to save themselves first, above all.

   What based on Hitchcock's 'the trouble with Harry'?

   • As his film’s title makes clear, Winn has taken inspiration from Alfred Hitchcock’s 1955 film The Trouble with Harry, a little-known dark comedy in which a quartet of New Englanders - like the characters here - find themselves lumbered with the problem of disposing of an inconvenient corpse.
