Two months and counting...
.... to the US/Canada release of The Lost King ! (right) Sally Hawkins as Philippa Langley, and (left) Philippa Langley and Richard III The Stephen Frears directed film about the extraordinary story of finding Richard III’s bones under a car park in Leicester will be released in US on March 24th. What serendipity for me as I am now able to announce the publication of the Second Edition of This Son of York , under my own EasterSmithPress. The book is newly available at all the usual on-line book-buying platforms . I was lucky enough to get a sneak, pirated viewing of the film last week (I might get buried alive if I disclose the source!)and I was delighted to relive the whole exciting time for Ricardians in 2012. I loved that Richard appears in the film as protagonist Philippa Langley’s muse, allowing her to “think” things through with him as he quietly stands by encouraging her monologues with a small smile, a nod of the head, or a raised eyebrow. Sally Hawkins is wonderful
