Film: The Duchess (2008)



Starring Keira Knightley and Ralph Fiennes (in a role scarier than even Lord Voldemort), The Duchess is based on the true story of Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire. This film is shot so as to show, not only the richly extravagant sets of period dramas and the glamour of Georgiana's character both in and out of the public eyes, but it also provides an intimate view of her life. The story reveals heartbreak and effortless emotion on the part of Keira Knightley and the story unfolds at a fast but not rushed pace. This film provides a unique strong female lead wrapped in turmoil that is engaging and thought provoking. Highly enjoyable but may not leave the viewer feeling happy.
Warning* There are a few sexual scenes during this film and maybe uncomfortable if viewed with parents!
