Wicked Little Letters (2023)
Based on a true story, Wicked Little Letters co-stars Oscar winner Olivia Colman and Oscar nominee Jessie Buckley as two neighbours in a 1920s English seaside town: conservative Edith and rowdy Irish migrant Rose.
When Edith and fellow residents begin to receive wicked letters full of unintentionally hilarious profanities, foul-mouthed Rose is charged with the crime, after a national uproar.
The stacked cast also includes 2024 BAFTA winner Timothy Spall (The Sixth Commandment) and nominee Anjana Vasan (Black Mirror), 2025 Critics Choice nominee Alisha Weir (Abigail), BAFTA winners Malachi Kirby, Gemma Jones, and Joanna Scanlan and Emmy winner Eileen Atkins.
Wicked Little Letters has an 80% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with Roger Ebert praising its “light-hearted eccentricity” that is “flexible enough to allow for real sentiment”
