Delayed, I suppose, by the pandemic, Roger Michell’s The Duke has reached theaters. The pipe smoking begins in the opening credits.
Jim Broadbent portrays real life Kempton Bunton, the reputed thief who absconded from a museum with Goya’s portrait of the Duke of Wellington in 1961.
At home, at work, in the streets, and even in the cinema, Bunton puffs away on his briar. A straight shape in the hands of Broadbent.
Good movie. Worth your time.
