Review of Hysteria (2011) by Paula I — 17 Jun 2012
A charming, if imperfect, Victorian-romantic-comedy-of-manners about poverty and affluence, science progress and stagnation, social activism and social , medical masturbation, overuse injuries, and the invention of the "personal massager." The fine troupe of actors get us deftly past those moments when the director's otherwise sure hand falters on the way to a satisfying conclusion.
It should be noted that, despite the opening text indicating that the events "really" occurred, the movie bears only an extremely vague relation to history.
