Possession Reviews
Makes you want to read more poems
I loved the parts of the movie with Jeremy Northam and Jennifer Ehle. The Victorian romance was more interesting than the modern one.
I particularly liked knowing more about the romance of Ash and Cristobal than they knew.
I rented this film and afterwards bought one for my collection.
It is a keeper.
Believe it or not, Victorians DID have steamy sex
...which is more than I can say about the modern couple. If you expect to see Gwyneth Paltrow take her clothes off, don't bother with this movie. She plays a frigid arrogant scholar, which is not too much of a stretch for her. In my opinion, she is not romantic damsel-in-distress material. She's much more interesting when she plays cold and cynical characters. Jennifer Ehle, on the other hand, shows quite a bit of skin. The clandestine love scene between the two poets still stands before my eyes.
I read the book, so I could tell that the movie left too many loose ends untied. For instance, it's not clear in the movie why Gwyneth Paltrow's character is crying.
