From: movie reviews Category: Films Date: 07 September 2008 Time: 08:23 AM Review: An entertaining romp which leaves you feeling good. Ralph Fiennes is excellent as a bluff duke, reckon he might get an Oscar, and Kiera Knightley is good, she does have a fascinating face especially in profile, odd outline and a mix of ugly and beautiful. This means she is good for the movies because we see a face huge, and a little uncertainty keeps us looking. You don't feel the past in this costume drama, it's just a place to have fun.
