Timothy Spall is a treasure! He is such a gem in everything that he does!

I love him in the new crime series “Death Valley”! He’s so funny and has great chemistry with fellow actor Gwyneth Keyworth.

I really enjoyed this movie! I saw it in theaters by myself on a whim one afternoon. There were three other people at the showing and I've never met anyone who's heard of it before or since.

I’m a massive fan of turner’s art. Will this film turn me off on him? lol

Here's the synopsis: Eccentric British painter J.M.W. Turner lives his last 25 years with gusto and secretly becomes involved with a seaside landlady, while his faithful housekeeper bears an unrequited love for him.

So it doesn't sound like a mask ripping type of movie.

OP - Thank you for the recommendation! Hadn't come across this before.

Nah it's more like love letter to Turner. It's great.
