ReviewsLos Angeles Times - ...A ripe, dark new British film....The technical side of DANCE WITH A STRANGER is impeccable..., Sight and Sound - ...A requiem to unrequited English passion, and a song of hope for British cinema..., New York Times - ...Very good....Giving the film its special edge is the striking performance of Miranda Richardson...
Additional InformationThe moving true story of Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be executed in Great Britain. The last man executed in that country was later found to be innocent, a regrettable (to say the least) incident which led to the abandonment of the practice.

  • Good film, I would think a lot of research has gone gone into it. I really enjoyed it and recommend it. Good price too.

    It was a very good film and I would imagine very true to actual events.

  • Beautifully and economically written, performed and shot.

    Beautifully and economically written, performed and shot. Some might find it dour - It's certainly not an upbeat film, but why would it be, given the subject? I saw it when released (I even witnessed the shooting of two scenes - one of which didn't make it into the final edit), and have just seen it again for the first time since. It's even better than I remember. And Miranda Richardson is sensational.

  • Ruth Ellis Story

    This film was entertaining with a tragic ending as we all know she was hung for murder , her life seemed to spiral out of control when she met him and she paid the ultimate price. Well acted throughout.

  • dance with a stranger

    accurate story, well acted and defines Britains' attitude to crimes of passion, or rather, their lack of it in that era.

  • Excellent film

    The intriguing story of Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be hanged in the UK, and her ill fated relationship with David Blakely. Very watchable and atmospheric. The script is good and all the characters skilfully portrayed. A highly recommended DVD.
