Wodehouse in Exile (2013 TV Movie)
8/10
A badly needed story about Wodehouse and wife
13 September 2022
We needed this movie. An important subject... Macintosh was confusing as a character... The wife would of been hard to portray as she was a very strong woman and that was almost understated. Muggeridge was also confusing as was his flitting around Vichy France so easily. A bit more story is needed on this and how they ended up in Bellport NY the home of publishers and near Willie Hitler and his Wife's residence walking distance down the road. I hope there will be a second movie to show who they were along with their friendships with E. B. White and family. Also something about their lives in Remsenberg NY. So many characters surrounding them in the States leaves me wondering why they lived in France or maybe that the US and UK had made the plans for him to do his writings in France. So much of the story seems to be trying to make us believe something that may not at all be so simple leaving for motivations in the movie that are not believable. I hope more comes to light on Wodehouse and Wife before I depart.
