Movie Reviews of Tipping the Velvet
Movie Review: Charles Dickens Crossed With Rita Mae Brown
Summary: 5 Stars
It is Great Expectations combined with Rubyfruit Jungle! This is a fun and moving tale of a woman discovering her sexuality in Victorian England. It has all the evil and redemption found in Dickens' tales, as well as the sexual adventure and heartache found in Brown's stories. I do not think it is a great artistic accomplishment. But it is wildly entertaining and emotionally satisfying. Enjoy!Movie Review: Brilliant!
Summary: 5 Stars
I came upon the DVD by chance, bought it, not realising what to expect. As it turned out, I totally love this film! Beautiful film, wonderful cast, superb acting. I really felt for Nan, the lead character, her loneliness and how she longed for companionship. It's a common feeling. Almost 3 solid hours of film and I love every minute of it. Loved the musical score too. I totally recommend it!Movie Review: A sexy good time
Summary: 5 Stars
This British mini-series is based on a book I haven't read. It's a series a stories about Nan's turn-of-the-century struggle to become a lesbian in England. It could be a story about any young woman's quest for self-discovery. It's quite sexy and contains nudity and intimate scenes. Apparently "tipping the velvet" is a euphemism for something, but you'll have to watch to learn what.Movie Review: I liked this movie alot!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a long movie but it's worth watching. It gives a glimpse into Lesbians in the victorian times. There are some sexy love scenes too! The only thing that bothered me is the main character's voice, it sounds weird, but other than that it's a wonderful movie with depth to it. It's very realistic, and I could watch it over and over.....if i had the time!Movie Review: Just get it!
Summary: 5 Stars
Very seldom do I find a book that is translated well into a movie. However, I will admit "Tipping the Velvet" was done extremely well. I couldn't put the book down when I started it and found the same intrigue with the dvd. Just enough sensuality without explotation and a story line that was interesting and the characters believeable.
