With the presence of Jane Campion, you could expect this film to be poetic and with dazzling costumes. Indeed, with the free-spirited Nicole Kidman as Isabel, the leading character, the film successfully crafted the image of the British society of that era.

But indeed, why would there be people like Barbara Hershey and John Malkovich who are committed to corrupt others? Do they have some better things to do rather than creating troubles to fulfill their own curiosity? Again, I couldn't have cared less as the slow pace made me bored to hell.

By the way, why the hell did Jane Campion use the quick fast forward to show the nudity of Nicole Kidman?
