Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to HOLD OVER “Wicked Little Letters” showing April 26-May 1 at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre.
“Wicked Little Letters” features an all-star cast including Olivia Colman, Jessie Buckley, Anjana Vasan, Gemma Jones, Eileen Atkins and Timothy Spall.
A 1920s English seaside town bears witness to a farcical and occasionally sinister scandal in this riotous mystery comedy.
Based on a stranger than fiction true story, “Wicked Little Letters” follows two neighbors: deeply conservative local Edith Swan (Olivia Colman) and rowdy Irish migrant Rose Gooding (Jessie Buckley).
When Edith and fellow residents begin to receive wicked letters full of unintentionally hilarious profanities, foul-mouthed Rose is charged with the crime. The anonymous letters prompt a national uproar, and a trial ensues. However, as the town’s women — led by Police Officer Gladys Moss (Anjana Vasan) — begin to investigate the crime themselves, they suspect that something is amiss, and Rose may not be the culprit after all.
Moss must race against the clock to find the true identity of the foul-mouthed criminal and clear Rose’s name. What they discover will change their small town forever.
