Review of Angels and Insects (1995) by Jeff B — 19 Jan 2009
Very good Victorian England film about a naturalist who comes to live with a rich British family and marries the eldest daughter. While adjusting to the lifestyle, he entertains the family with his knowledge of insects.
Describing the film makes it sound very dull, but it's actually a good film with excellent performances. The sets and costumes and pretty awesome, especially the first dance sequence, some very memorable costumes.
And Kristin Scott Thomas is amazing as one of the extended members of the family who takes interest in the insects, I wish she was in it more. Nice film, I'm glad I saw it.
