Review of Mary Reilly (1996) by Abel D — 03 Jan 2016
Dreary, understated period piece. Julia Roberts has an Irish accent and John Malkovich plays two equally arrogant characters equally well. My boyfriend liked it because the drudgery of housekeeping in Victorian England seemed well-conveyed.
He says, "I don't know why women are always so interested in period pieces when this is their lot." Very similar mood to that Jeremy Irons movie where he plays twin gynecologists, only way less heavy.
