David Oyelowo and Rosamund Pike star in this romantic drama based
on the true story of an African prince who fell in love with a
white British woman in the 1940s. While studying in England, Prince
Seretse Khama (Oyelowo) meets Ruth Williams (Pike), a beautiful
young woman who immediately steals his heart. As the two begin a
highly controversial love affair, they battle every day against
prejudice and hate, hoping that their love will keep them together.
When the time comes for Seretse to go home to take his place on the
throne of Bechuanaland, he refuses to leave without Ruth and so the
two marry and return as husband and wife. With British government
official Alistair Canning (Jack Davenport) threatening Ruth with
the knowledge that her marriage could cause the downfall of the
British Empire in Africa, the couple do everything they can to
convince the world that they can be an interracial couple and still
successfully lead a country.
THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 'Uproarious
memoir packed with anecdotes about the Harry Potter films' Daily
Mail 'Very funny and fascinating' Mail on Sunday 'Brave and
brilliant' Cosmopolitan 'Highly readable' The Times They called for
a break, and Gambon magicked up a cigarette from out of his beard.
He and I were often to be found outside the stage that housed the
Astronomy Tower, having 'a breath of fresh air' as we referred to
it. There would be painters and plasterers and chippies and sparks,
and among them all would be me and Dumbledore having a crafty
cigarette. From Borrower to wizard, Tom Felton's childhood was
anything but ordinary. His early rise to fame saw him catapulted
into the limelight aged just twelve when he landed the iconic role
of Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter films. Speaking with candour
and his own trademark humour, Tom shares his experience of growing
up on screen and as part of the wizarding world for the very first
time. He tells all about his big break, what filming was really
like and the lasting friendships he made during ten years with the
franchise, as well as the highs and lows of fame and the reality of
navigating adult life after filming finished. Prepare to meet a
real-life wizard.
