Review of The Portrait of a Lady (1996) by Adam Mars-Jones for Independent (UK) — 06 Sep 2011
Campion has a gift for lightly accenting a moment or image so that it stands out from the even re-creation of period... What she can't quite do in film language is approximate to the grand hesitations of James's style, its huge suspensions of resolution.
