Interesting biography of British writer Iris Murdoch. A film that stands out above all with the excellent acting by the quartet Dench, Winslet, Broadbent and Bonneville, in which the female cast has just that edge.
The film does indeed switch from present to past. Not much wrong with that, especially if the editing is up to standard in that area, but the biggest shortcoming is that you miss the impact of Alzheimer's disease in Iris. At times, the film struck the right chords and gave you an insight into this scary disease. At that point, when you're really in the movie and empathizing with the characters, the movie went into a flashback. Too bad…
