A good story, with great acting, costumes, and attention to detail.

Rating: Null/10 (17 January 1999)

This is what a motion picture should be. What a pleasure to sit through an entire film with no explosions, multiple homicides, and car chases. What an intelligent, well done work this is. The attention to detail of the period, and, of course, the high caliber of acting delivered by not only the principle actors, but also the supporting cast, was an absolute joy to see. Gwyneth Paltrow and Joseph Fiennes should be very proud of their performances. This is a don't miss movie.
