Cinema – Live by Night (18TC)
Ben Affleck directs, produces and stars in this epic gangster yarn from the Roaring Twenties, based on a novel by Dennis Lehane, when Prohibition is creating a widespread black market that ruthless underworld types are exploiting to its fullest. This is a sort of Florida-based version of Birmingham’s Peaky Blinders, when the son of Irish immigrants, Joe Coughlin (Affleck), returns from the horrors of World War I desensitised to violence and eager to build a much better life for himself. Here, too, he has to take on rival crime gangs, only his attempts to extricate himself from the world he jumped into proves impossible. It’s all good, soapy stuff and although it perhaps doesn’t quite crackle as it might, there are some great performances (Sienna Miller as a sultry moll in particular) and a couple of excellent directorial set-pieces that prove that Affleck is a more than steady hand behind the camera.
In cinemas from February 2
