THE WIFE 2017
BBC Two, 11.15pm ÌÌÌÌÌ
Bjorn L Runge’s mesmerising drama about an ageing woman living in the shadow of her husband stars Glenn Close and Jonathan Pryce. The latter plays Joe Castleman, a great American novelist whose brilliance means that Joan (Close) turns a blind eye to his awful behaviour. This character study shows all his ugly elements in relief against Joan’s genuine depth. Close’s portrayal of interiority is nuanced and excellent.
