Review of Jude (1996) by Lisa Schwarzbaum for Entertainment Weekly — 22 Mar 2004
It's worth seeing this stark adaptation of Thomas Hardy's Jude the Obscure just for the extraordinary performance of Christopher Eccleston as Jude Fawley, the stonemason in turn-of-the-century England whose dreams of university scholarship are thwarted.
And British telly director Michael Winterbottom sustains a fine atmosphere of dank misery.
