Didn't make it very far into this one. Pacing was maybe too realistic. Like watching the grass grow. Not very dramatic…

Review of Tess (1979)

By Alex C (1,429) on 11 May 2013

Overly long, but well-done. Goes to show that an afternoon spent at the National Gallery of Art watching a free movie can be time well spent…

Une merveilleuse Nastassja Kinski ...Un grand Roman Polanski = Un mélodrame assuré... a voir ou revoir…

Review of Tess (1979)

By Morgan W (182) on 17 Dec 2011

Three hours long and Polanski still left out a few important bits, but mostly true to the book, including the drawn out landscapes :-P…
