Entertainment Reviews:
3.5 stars out of 4 -- Anchored by an extraordinary performance from actress Alicia Vikander, James Kent’s TESTAMENT OF YOUTH bears comparison to many other superbly mounted costume dramas backed by the BBC...

Glides with sorrowful grace, pitching at a respectful and tear-inducing tone.

Beautiful, moving yet grim, Testament of Youth is very obviously awards-bait, but one that finally gives Alicia Vikander an opportunity to shine.

Those who enjoy a biopic will enjoy this film. Also, those who like a good period drama - the attention to detail and faithful recreation of Edwardian Britain will delight and educate in equal measure.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
Though the movie at times feels oddly unfinished (you wonder what Miranda Richardson, in a tiny role as an Oxford professor, is there for), it's artful and moving.
