    Handsome period piece, a little slow but well produced and acted. Barbara Hershey shows up late in the proceedings to offer a razor sharp portrait of a woman of mystery.

    Excellent film with a good cast and beautiful costumes and people. Enjoyed it very much.

    I'm not sure what to think about this one. We didn't see enough of his passion for Mirah until the end when it was thrown at us. Why - because he found out he was Jewish? It seemed like that was the more likely reason for their marriage. All in all there was too much frustrat...( read more)ion with the whole story to be able to enjoy a somewhat happy ending.

    Not quite as good as a Jane Austen piece, but still well-worth watching.

    Ok. From the cover, most ppl are likely to run a mile after rolling their eyes furiosly. Yet, this one is different focuses on Daniel (Hugh D) whose adopted by a gentleman and never questions his heritage until two gorgeous women walk into his life. Torn between them, he's ultima...( read more)tely finds he can master his own destiny but it'll come at a price. Deals surprisingly with some serious issues such as power, race, social acceptance, love and matrimony. Not light-hearted which is one of the reasons I think why many ppl will not favour as they did P&P

    Hugh Dancy and Jamie Bamber, I'm so there.

    I love Hugh Dancy in this, his eyes were his best acting tool for this adaptation of a glorious George Eliot novel.

    Sounds interesting enough.

    This is another of those movies that I had to watch twice to truly enjoy it, but I did enjoy it the second time through.
