A failing shoe factory that's struggling to maintain its footing following the death of its founder finds the inspiration needed to stay in business from the most unlikely of sources in veteran British director Julian Jarrold's warmhearted tale of fancy footwear and changing times. Charlie Price (Joel Edgerton) just can't seem to keep the factory afloat on his own, and with the livelihood of his entire small town hanging in the balance, he needs to come up with something truly groundbreaking.
This was fun. I mean, Chiwetel Ejiofor is amazing, he is such a great actor, and so good playing Lola. The movie goes with a social viewpoint on declining industry in England, and some off humor. Of course, it has its fairy talish side, which is all pretty and lovely, becoming cheesy in the end, but the interesting part was that it actually to some extent happened in Northampton.
