<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-US">- OFFICIAL SELECTION: South by Southwest London - <o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Love and astronomy don’t mix in this refreshing take on the romantic comedy, based on Virginia Woolf’s novel and featuring an all-star cast.<br> <br> Haley Bennett (<i>Widow Clicquot</i>) plays Katharine Hilbery, an aspiring astronomer who is passionate about two things, and two things only: the stars and Cambridge University.<br> <br> Katharine’s controlling father (Timothy Spall) attempts to push her away from learning and into a marriage with a family friend, the pompous and clueless William (Jack Whitehall).&nbsp; With her independence under threat, Katharine turns to the suffragette movement, spearheaded by the straight-talking Mary (Lily Allen).<br> <br> However, Katharine’s life opens up further when she crosses paths with Ralph Denham, a working-class writer hired by her mother to help edit a sprawling family biography. As intellectual and romantic loyalties shift, Katharine is forced to re-evaluate her beliefs about love, ambition, and claiming her place in the world.<br> <br> Fun and contemporary in tone, this is an inventive adaptation of Woolf’s story that is as relevant today as it ever was.<o:p></o:p></span></p>DramaPT1H35M2026-10-29GBen
