This reviewer holds her hands up and admits that she went into her Misbehaviour screening with a lot of assumptions. I believed that the film would paint the Women’s Lib protestors as the film’s infallible heroes. That the Miss World contestants would be ditzy, vague, 80% bitchy. That Mr and Mrs Morley, in charge of the competition, would be absolute assholes.

I was wrong.

Yes, this film tells the story about the Women’s Liberation movement’s protests of the 1970 Miss World competition. And, yes, it has a feminist agenda. However, Misbehaviour – directed by Call The Midwife and The Crown’s Philippa Lowthorpe – is anything but dry.

Starring Keira Knightley, Keeley Hawes, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Suki Waterhouse, Jessie Buckley and Greg Kinnear (among others), it’s actually an incredibly charming and funny film which, yeah, just so happens to be about feminism.
