Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
The Last Days of Jack Sheppard is based on the inferred prison encounters between the 18th century criminal Jack Sheppard and Daniel Defoe, ghostwriter of Sheppard’s ‘autobiography’. It traces the connections between representation, speculation and the discourses of high and low culture.
