Movie Reviews of The Governess
Movie Review: Luscious.
Summary: 5 Stars
We were swept away by the scenery, the story, the love affair... Minnie Driver was a delight to watch. Her awakening sensuality was mesmerizing. Perhaps her character is a bit "modern" for that particular time period, but we loved the idea of such a headstrong, intelligent, spiritual (and spirited!) woman finding her own way -- despite others. Tom Wilkinson surprised us with his sex appeal too! Nice job. The sweeping landscape and ocean scenes were breathtaking. The secondary story involving the development of photographs was intriguing and creative.Movie Review: I loved this movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
Minnie Driver was excellent and Tom Wilkinson took my breath away. The passion he showed in his eyes was beautiful and he is a fine, fine actor. I loved his nude scene, we need to see more older men like that...being sensual and real. If I see anymore depictions of one dimensional sexuality(older men running around subways with guns drawn to win over some Barbie Doll)I'm going to spit. The plot was interesting and the characters were well cast. Jonathan Rhys-Meyers was great, as always. The photography was gorgeous. I just loved this movie!
Movie Review: Forget the artsy-fartsy reviews---this movie entertains
Summary: 5 Stars
If you're looking for an entertaining coming-of-age story, and you like seeing misty country scenes, and Minnie Driver in big black dresses, and you are willing to reflect a little on anti-Semitism, and the isolation of the landed gentry, I suggest you buy this movie. It delivers. It's a very good movie. It also has enough to it that if you want to "think deeply" about the symbolism, and character development, and the camera angles and blah blah blah, you can do that, too. It's just a good, solid movie.Movie Review: Minnie Driver is wonderful in THE GOVERNESS.
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved Minnie Driver in AN IDEAL HUSBAND and she gets to expand her talents in The Governess. If you love period pieces and good drama, this is a wonderful movie. The ending might have been a little more 'dramatized' but it was a delight never the less.Movie Review: Loved it!
Summary: 5 Stars
Sensual, sensuous, beautifully filmed, some nudity (which was delightful, although no sex, unfortunately), and a wonderful story of a woman's first love and love affair and blossoming into her power. The soundtrack was stunning. I recommend it highly!
