MISS IN HER TEENS

Cinemavixion Review

"Miss in Her Teens" is a delightful comedic romp, offering a fresh take on the classic play by David Garrick. Directed by Matthew Butler-Hart, this 2014 production stars the venerable Sir Ian McKellen, alongside Simon Callow and Carol Royle, bringing a distinguished gravitas to the farcical proceedings. The plot, centered around the romantic entanglements of young love versus the desires of older generations, is a witty exploration of courtship and deception. McKellen's presence, though perhaps not as central as his legendary status might suggest, adds a layer of theatrical polish. The film captures the spirit of its source material, delivering a lighthearted and engaging experience that, despite a modest IMDb rating of 5.3, is a charming piece of theatre adapted for the screen. It's a production that highlights the enduring appeal of witty dialogue and classic comedic situations, making it a worthy watch for lovers of British comedy and stage adaptations.
