Beau Brummell: This Charming Man (2006) short review

Kendra April 29, 2006

2006 Beau Brummell- This Charming Man

James Purefoy is hot hot hot, and he is even hotter as the dapper Beau Brummell, male fashion leader of the English Regency. Sadly, this film underwhelms, mostly because of a meandering plot that never seems to hit its stride, and what appeared to be too small a budget for the appropriate number of extras and locations. The men’s costuming, as you might guess, is REALLY nicely done. The women’s is a snooze, with the few female characters wearing the same thing over and over.
