Branagh's 2022 black and white film **BELFAST** is considered his most personal film. I offer that his 1995 black and white film **IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER** is equally autobiographical. And I guess that we will see a third black and white film in the future that would showcase the twilight of his career to close out the Branagh Trilogy. (_Cross your fingers_.) **IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER** is also the first film that Branagh does not appear. It is arguably the least popular film in his oeuvre, partially because of the release in the United States under the name **A MIDWINTER'S TALE**. For ease of understanding, this review will refer to it as **MIDWINTER**. The storyline is brief, almost a British **WAITING FOR GUFFMAN** as a small group of theatrical performers are mounting an overly ambitious, _underly_ funded production of that old Christmas classic, **HAMLET**. Yes the _everyone's dead at the end_ **HAMLET**. It even results in a powerful movie producer attending opening night in an environment not typical to great theatre. The screenplay is filled with great characters and very funny circumstances. Although not on screen, Branagh's voice is loud and clear. In fact, by this sixth film of his, we are able to see a bit of critical weakness. Branagh's films are lacking in quiet moments - usually wall to wall dialogue mixed with Patrick Doyle's regal musical scoring. This film is the first to subtly address that. In fact, it ends with many payoffs that the heart understands oh so well. **MIDWINTER** is a very good film, but will likely remain his most forgettable work... Until my _dream Branagh Trilogy_ Box Set exists!

Charming 60-something José returns to Prague after 30 years living in Mexico, though he was convinced that he would never see his hometown again. He was persuaded by his deeply religious Mexican wife Dolores, who is convinced that only a miracle that might be fulfilled by Prague’s famous Infant Jesus can help their daughter Penelopé get pregnant. And the ideal time for this is Christmas. And when Ruda, his friend from Prague, also insists, José agrees to return to the places he used to know and to the memories that they bring back – including his former Prague love. And it becomes evident that the Infant Jesus is not the only one capable of making miracles come true in Prague. Penelopé’s longed-for conception is definitely not the only one…
