I have yet to see Michael Caton-Jones' 2020 film Our Ladies, but I already suspect that it's going to be fantastic.
It is an adaptation of Alan Warner's third novel, 1998's The Sopranos, which has nothing to do with US crime families and everything to do with five schoolgirls from Oban going on a sesh in Edinburgh when they're meant to be preparing to compete in an inter schools choir competition.
I have long been a fan of the book, and the 2015 theatre adaptation Our Ladies Of Perpetual Succour, which was created by Lee Hall. Some of you might remember me mentioning the shows infamous disclaimer in 2017...
With this in mind, I was really looking forward to the cinema release of Our Ladies in April 2020 but, alas, the pandemic had other plans and the film has now fallen off the UK release schedules.
Hence the love letter, in which I argue that to let this film die on the shelf in some vault at Sony would be an absolute tragedy. You can read my piece here.
