ATONEMENT
(Joe Wright, 2007)
Produced by Working Title (+2); distribution: Universal
Budget:$30m
Box Office: $130m (world); $51m (USA), £11.5m
SUMMARY: A somewhat quirky (postmodern parody?) opening in which at least one central protagonist is firmly anchored, and signifiers abound of wealth, privilege and orderliness. Typical WT in some regards, although could be taken for another British production company and brand: Merchant Ivory.PREVIOUS POSTS THAT REFERENCE ATONEMENT:
