I mainly wanted to see this because I heard that Kate Winslet had some good nude scenes, but I she is also one of my favourite actresses. It is actually quite an interesting story based in the Victorian times in a not completely wealthy village. It basically tells the story of a life and love story between Jude Fawley (the very talented, once Doctor Who, Christopher Eccleston) and Sue Bridehead (Winslet). Very interesting for a British film, excellent acting by both Winslet and Eccleston. It is quite distressing to see moments of Winslet having a baby, but if you overcome and pass that moment, the rest is very good. Touching, romantic and dramatic in places, what more could you ask? Kate Winslet was number 55 on The 100 Greatest Movie Stars, she was number 2 on The 50 Greatest British Actresses, and she was number 29 on The World's Greatest Actor. Very good!
