Much more engaging then I would've thought

Rating: 8/10 (8 May 2006)

I bought this after it's Oscar buzz but I didn't watch it for a very long time. I thought that it would be long and boring, but when I finally did watch it (becuase I wanted something to fall asleep too) I found myself thoroughly engaged. I ended up not falling asleep until after I watched every moment of it and at the end I was very impressed. I've seen all of Knightley's movies and I'm convinced her performance in this was one of the best she may ever do. She really gave it everything she had and I would recommend this to anyone who thinks they may like it. You may be surprised at how easy it is to watch and get involved with.
