I think the Baker is one of the loveliest project Damian Lewis has done. It has comedy, romance and a beautiful guy in the title role. I was in love with Milo the first sight. He is a charming sweet man with a longing for a true and honest relationship and that is a thing we all longing for in the end. But Milo has a problem most of us don't have…he is a professional killer and that makes it a bit tough to get a girl.
The slight awkward way he goes through life
is funny and attractive the same time, and the fact that he is a bit of a loser in
the assassin business doesn’t make the whole situation better because after he
made again kind of a mistake the “company ” is ready to get rid of him, only his father like friend takes his side
and allows him to escape to Wales in a nice but small village. It's that kind of village there is
nothing to write home about except that the villagers are a little bit quirky
but loveable, the town needs a baker and
Milo is happy to take the part and you see a quite funny way to learn to
make bread and bake a cake but unfortunately you the villagers get to know
about Milo's real job and suddenly almost everyone has a person he would love to
kill and orders “a cake” at the new bakery… Everyone is in the view about
Milo and the real wishes of the villagers. Everyone except
Milo who really start to love his new job and the local vet a tough but nice
woman.
It’s a sweet British comedy with the focus
on charming dialogs and a beautiful landscape. It shows wonderful postcard like Wales
moments and it really has quirky but also everyday moments,
that kind of moments every man or woman in
the thirties experienced, it's sometimes a funny and kind of awkward road until you ready to settle down with the
right person.
The Baker is a charming production with a sweet and beautiful performance from Damian Lewis and a brilliant totally British humour performance by Michael Gamblon in a guest role. Don't miss it!!
I think the Lewis brothers with Damian in front of the camera and his brother Gareth behind did a great job.
