Dirty Pretty Things
Stephen Frears’ film about a couple of illegal immigrants living in London with two good performances from Chiwetel Ejiofor and Audrey Tautou. A very seedy side of London is exhibited, although as the plot develops I was left believing less-and-less in it as it became ever more fantastical; however, this makes Dirty Pretty Things an enjoyable film to watch.
