don’t think it was because [Joe Wright] didn’t allow it,” he says. “I don’t think any actors tried to because we all loved the script. Why would we want to mess with it? Every now and again we’d go that doesn’t work as well as it does on the page and we’d have a wee chat and think about other words we could say. But it was remarkably rare and refreshingly rare.”

A lot of other people seem to be noticing the greatness of the script, as well as the marvelous film on a whole. Atonement has been received exceedingly well by critics and audiences alike, and Oscar-talk is swirling. “I don’t know what its chances are,” McAvoy says of the film’s possible award nominations. “All I know is that we’ve made something we’re incredibly proud of and I’ll be lucky to be in something as good as this ever again I think. And I would hope that my pride in my involvement isn’t diminished should we not get any nominations.”

Awards or no awards, McAvoy has every right to be proud.
