Multiple Oscar nominee Stephen Frears is a tough nut to crack. Amiable but terse, his excellent multilayered films do the talking for him, from his first collaboration with Christopher Hampton and Michelle Pfeiffer on 1998’s Dangerous Liaisons to 2007’s The Queen. In his latest film, Cheri ( read Cinematical’s review here ) , Frears turns his lens onto the cloistered and often duplicitous world of wealthy courtesans. Frears’ films often focus on subversive outsiders who must make their own “family,” as it were, such as Dirty Pretty Things, The Grifters, and My Beautiful Laundrette
