The Duke
Details
Driven by a sense of societal injustice, Bunton hatches a plan to borrow the priceless masterpiece. With the intention of returning it and seeking a fairer pension for the elderly, he manages to successfully execute the theft, leaving the authorities baffled.
As news of the audacious theft spreads, the film delves into the moral complexities surrounding the act. Bunton finds himself thrust into the spotlight as a reluctant folk hero, admired by some for his daring act against an elite institution, but condemned by others for his criminal actions.
Led by an incredible performance from Jim Broadbent as Kempton Bunton, the film masterfully explores themes of social inequality, personal conviction, and the power of individual actions to inspire change.
Directed by Roger Michell, The Duke offers a thought-provoking and heartwarming narrative that highlights the significance of art and the lengths one man is willing to go to address social injustice.
Embark on this extraordinary journey where one man's noble intentions collide with the harsh realities of breaking the law. Watch The Duke on our streaming platform to witness this compelling tale unravel.
