The acting is quite splendid, especially in the vicinity of the quite splendid Watts.

This stab at grand romance fails to satisfy.

Concealed passions are revealed as life takes unexpected turns and what initially seems like an act of vengeance becomes the making of the central characters

Norton's effect and Watts' able portrayal are not enough to move the misogyny of the narrative.

Exquisitely filmed and finely acted.
January 10, 2007
The always surprising Watts creates a woman at once contemporary and retro. And Norton, as a producer as well as star, concedes enough space for Schreiber and the effortlessly fascinating Jones to earn their own spotlights.

Sweeping vistas, period-piece sets, impeccable literary source, a little stolid at times, but ultimately quite impressive.

Norton, an American, and Australian Watts are so busy struggling with their accents that they never really find their characters' hearts. But it's a solid piece of period escapism.

The movie makes for a good old-fashioned wide-screen wallow.
April 20, 2007
The production values are characteristically sumptuous, William Daniels' photography is lustrous, and Boleslawski directs with suitable flair.
