Stephen Bradley's biopic left me with the abiding impression that Christina found her salvation and that's rare, after all isn't that we're all striving for: salvation whatever that means.

We walk away with plenty of questions about what's going in Noble's mind, but one clear conclusion-both halves of her life would and should make compelling movies in their own right.

Kevin Maher The Times (UK) Feb 11, 2016 3/5

Noble is a solid straight-faced biopic that is raised to surprising heights by a flinty central performance from the redoubtable Deirdre O'Kane.

Even if you don't quite buy the philosophy this is selling, the three main actors are impressive and director Stephen Bradley does a fair job of slipping between the different timelines.
