ANNA FRIEL - THE REVIEW.....
It is not very often that a star from British TV serials and
programmes is ever that good to warrant a mention normally in the
pages of this illustrious diskmag, but Anna Friel is something
different.
It was only in the late summer last year that Anna Friel joined
the cast of the popular Channel 4 soap "Brookside". Anna, along
with another (unknown until now) actress, Sandra Maitland, play
the parts of a wife and a daughter who were abused badly and
beaten up by their "father", and the aftermath.
Both actresses play the parts of the terrorised Jordache family,
who are living in a safe-house in Brookside Close.
Their performances so far since they arrived on the scene have
been stunning.......to say the least, alongside with the beauty
of Anna Friel to boot. British actresses have always been given
the cold shoulder in the past by Hollywood for being too "boring"
and not attractive enough for films - we hope Anna gets the break
she deserves.
When they arrived on the scene, things moved in a weird way...to
say the least. Sandra was shown to have bruises on her legs that
were a result of being battered by her violent husband. Her
husband was sent to prison to serve some years - but he came back
- and the performances started to improve with breathtaking
horror.....especially when the husband, Trevor, was stabbed to
death by Anna (who played the daughter, Beth) in a scene that
looked straight out of the magnificent horror film "The Kiss"
starring Joanna Pacula. However, there was more to come......
Trevor was buried in the garden and the patio was extended to
cover the body. The Jordaches thought that their troubles were
over.....until Trevor's sister Brenna appeared from nowhere,
Çand, after going through the funeral process (which was not for
Trevor) she wanted Trevor's ring. So Beth and Sinbad (one of the
Brookside residents - who used to do the window cleaning) had to
dig Trevor up - in a scene that was excellently filmed.
After Brenna departed, the Jordaches thought, again.....that
their troubles were over........until the Shackletons (the owners
of the safe house where the Jordaches live) announced that they
wanted to build an extension in the garden to house other
families in the same position as the Jordaches..............
As I have said previously, the performances of all involved in
this plot have been excellent - with Anna Friel coming out as the
best overall. I hope that Anna gets her reward of joining
Hollywood sometime in the future........even starring alongside
the ranks of Meredith Salenger, Corey Feldman & Joanna Pacula
in a future movie sounds good..........if it happens.
