#BUGGERS WITH STYLE PLUNKETT AND MACCLEAN MOVIE#

Alan Cumming enjoys himself as an extremely flamboyant bisexual Lord Rochester. In supporting roles are Matt Lucas and David Walliam of Little Britain. Ken Stott is suitably sinister as Mr Chance, the disreputable head of the police force. Michael Gambon is the Lord Chief Justice and Liv Tyler is his niece, attracted to Captain Macleane. When they escape from prison, they set up as master and servant, infiltrate high society in order to get information for their robberies.

Jonny Lee Miller is Captain Macleane, imprisoned but unexpectedly freed, who joins up with a former apothecary-turned-highwayman, Plunkett, played by Robert Carlyle. The film also revels in its squalid atmosphere. (But it is quite effective – and interesting to see the 18th century steps to 20th century music.) This film is meant to be a rather up-to-date look at the 18th century with 20th century dialogue and with some anachronistic techno-music, especially for the ballroom sequence. The film can be looked at along with films about the period such as Tom Jones and Joseph Andrews, Mistress Pamela and, to the point, Where’s Jack with Stanley Baker and Tommy Steele in a story about criminals in London at the time? There are allusions to the police, government.

It also goes into high society of the period – as targets for the highwaymen. This is the Hogarth time and the film revels in the Hogarthian atmosphere of prisons, low life in the streets, the highways. Plunkett and Macleane is a story about highwaymen in the middle of the 18th century.

On the other hand, if you want historical action that has at least half a brain, give Rob Roy or Master and Commander a look.

The movie is probably available for purchase through some digital store right now. If you like this sort of thing, then more power to you. And we shouldn't forget the F-bombs and other language from the gutter to amuse all the eight year olds out there. There's no shortage of historical adventures out there, so the thinking behind this one was probably to set itself apart with some grave robbing, an impromptu autopsy, STD gags, and anachronistic fireworks displays to go along with the '90s tunes. And club beats laid under the music played at an aristocrat's ball (keeping in mind it's the 18th century)? Sure, you get that with this piece of tripe as well. How about retrieving a swallowed gem stone from a corpse? And then getting it from somebody's hole of his arse? Plunkett & Macleane has you covered. And club beats laid under the music played at an aristocrat's ball You want lewdness in your 18th century bromance? This movie's got you. You want lewdness in your 18th century bromance? This movie's got you.
