Movie Reviews of Tipping the Velvet
Movie Review: For richer or poorer?
Summary: 5 Stars
The photography and the sparkling performances of the particpants make this movie engrossing from the first minute, but the best bits are in the closing stages. Who would you choose? A very attractive looking former lover, whose heart you dont fully understand, or a less atractive one, who you believe loves you.
To make the plot more complicated the person making the decision has recently been through hard times, where economic security would most likey be high on the agenda.
Movie Review: Excellent,excellent,excellent.
Summary: 5 Stars
Take away the Lesbian themes, and this could be sold as a comming of age and self discovery film. The main charachter the Oyster girl took the journey of self discovery, and survived the pitfalls of life and love, that happen today in the 21st century in straight relationships.Although Tripping the Velvet is a slang term.I felt it was much more a story of survival and retribution.However I am not up on Gay Histroy but I don't feel the ending would have hppened in Merry Old England..Movie Review: My interesting story...
Summary: 5 Stars
I was actually so excited about this miniseries that I purchased a British video version of it while travelling in England. I watched it once while abroad, and brought it home as a souvenir (knowing full well that it wouldn't play). Now that I can watch it on my American DVD player, I don't need the VHS anymore, but I think I'll keep, so that next time I go to England I won't be without it. Wonderful book, wonderful miniseries. My only regret is that I couldn't have lived it.Movie Review: Tipping the Velvet
Summary: 5 Stars
Simply the smartest and most funny lesbian drama of all time! It's full of 180 degree plot turns that surprise and delight. Rachel Stirling and Keeley Hawes are credible and definitely adorable enough to make you wish they really were lesbians!
I also love the way the producers show "just enough" to let your imagination flow.
But the best part is the ending which will leave you shouting, "Hurrah!!!", and humming the songs for days on end...
Movie Review: Victorian England .... You Have to Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is excellent! Typical Sara Waters interleaving and this was produced flawlessly! The "added bonuses" were awesome! A must see movie!
I actually had to stop it and go do something else at one point because I didn't want to see what I thought was going to happen ..... that's how involved I was.
I just ordered the paperback, backwards for me but I just have to read it now!
