Customer Reviews of The Dresser
Probably worked better on stage Some plays translate well to film, and others don't. Glengarry Glen Ross is an example of one that translates beautifully. The Dresser is certainly an interesting film; Albert Finney and Tom Courtenay deliver strong performances, (although they both are over the top) and one does feel the atmosphere of World War II England, but this story simply works better on stage.
"STOP THAT TRAIN"!
A stunning performance by Albert Finney. The great Bard,s works are on display here even offstage.( in a sense)
Pillar To Post acting by the rest of the cast and a treat to see Mr. Tom Courtenay on the screen again. Mr. Courtenay has made only a handfull of films it seems and in each one he has really stood out. In this film he is totally and eternally "The Dresser"
Brilliant drama about drama
I have always loved the theater and actors. The Dresser pays great homage to the noble art of the thespian but also captures the isolating nature of their work.
Finney and Courtenay are both brilliant as the waning star and the has-been confidant. Their relationship is one of the most poignant ever written. Courtenay's character is a passionate study of both desperation and unflagging loyalty.
This one is truly a keeper for anyone who loves theater, actors and just good drama.
