Vanessa Redgrave, Uma Thurman and Edward Fox all good actors, but... boring, boring, BORING!!!! I gave it 3 stars only because I didn't hate it. Vanessa Redgrave is very good in the movie and that's the only positive thing I can write.

Great scenery but the movie was a little slow developing even when you know how it is going to end. Pretty much a womans movie and it is quite similar to most English movies.

Miss Vanessa Redgrave is superb. I love all her movies and never get tired of watching them again and again.
