Elsinore screening at LFF 2026 draws divided reviews

Original: In Elsinore "Scott’s beacon of light is swallowed up by Stone and Beresford’s heavy-handedness" https://www. eyeforfilm.

A new production of Elsinore, directed by Stone and Beresford, is being reviewed at the London Film Festival 2026. Critics single out a luminous central performance by Scott, but argue it is undercut by the directors' overly heavy-handed approach. The reviewer praises Scott's work as a 'beacon of light' while finding the overall staging too forceful and unsubtle.

Why now: The film is premiering at the London Film Festival 2026, prompting fresh critical reaction.
