‘Finest’ a charming war movie about making war movies The characters in the real film often poke fun at the film-within-a-film, a propaganda movie made by the British before the U.S. has entered World War II. The largest asset is a general positive outlook for humanity — something that makes the production well-timed for cynical 2017 audiences. “Their Finest” features tragedy and a constant state of tension, as London faces air raids and its population makes sacrifices. [...] nearly all the characters — from its plucky scriptwriters to a haughty and oblivious actor played by Bill Nighy — have a hidden trait of decency that is excavated with each bomb strike. Based on a book by Lissa Evans and directed by Lone Scherfig, the film is infused with a receiving line of lively characters, including an American who can’t act, and two sisters-turned-boat captains who are less than ideal heroes. The female characters are particularly strong, mining many of the same themes and struggles seen in TV’s “Mad Men.” Scherfig does steer the film right before the ending, taking advantage of the goodwill built up in the first two acts.
