FROM time to time four old friends, all extraordinary actresses, meet up in the English countryside to gossip, to remember and to laugh. For once they let the cameras in.
The new documentary film Tea with the Dames is a celebration of the lives and careers of Dame Eileen Atkins, Dame Judi Dench, Dame Joan Plowright and Dame Maggie Smith.
All have gone from being fledgeling actresses in the 1950s to acting royalty. They've watched each others' careers grow and bloom and have celebrated life's ups and downs together.
In Tea with the Dames, audiences can spend time with these acting legends as they talk about their lives and their professional experiences across theatre, television and film.
Directed by Roger Michell (My Cousin Rachel, Notting Hill), the film also includes a range of astonishing archive material.
Candid, funny, caustic, irreverent, poignant and utterly engrossing, this unmissable release is proof that there is truly nothing like a dame.
- Tea with the Dames, in cinemas nationally June 7.
