Heartbreaking, but brilliant!

Rating: 8/10 (8 September 2012)

First I have to say that this is very heartbreaking. I can't help myself not to feel sad about women in that period. I really don't know how could they could lived such a life. Rich, but very poor in a way and pitiful. The story was heartbreaking and tragic. But, the actors did a fantastic job. Keira Knightley is a wonderful and brilliant actress, she is just made for these period roles, she nails them in an outstanding way. And she is a perfect "on screen" mother. Although she doesn't have a child on her own, she acts like a truly mother when required. I'm a very though person but I must admit that the scene, where little Eliza is token away from her arms, I feel like my heart was ripping apart, even though I don't know that feeling, but the hole point is....amazingly acted and done. Ralph Fiennes, I must be forgiven for this, but I won't praise him much. He is great actor, he did a great job, but I totally hate his character, which is more tragic given the fact that that person existed. And persons like him still exists somewhere in this world. The cast did a wonderful job. It deserved it's Oscar and even much more if it could receive, no doubt! I love the movie, but I can't give it a 10 because the story it's cruel. And it's nobody's fault, it's just a fact and I feel sorry for this.
Worth watching!
