The theme is important and relevant and there are many people doing the work of Tessa. However, this is not the film. The acting, to begin with, is not worthy of this topic. Rachel Wiez is not a very good actress to handle a role such as this one. Julie Christie she is not. Susan Sarandon yes. Rachel Weiz no.
Ralph Fiennes, however, was so much better an actor that one really cared about him. But the picture made no sense and I wondered how this man could get away with the things he did.
b Possible Spoiler Alert For someone who dies at the end, it was no surprise. I'm amazed he didn't die earlier. Ham's son doing all that work on the computer was not too believable, to me, anyway.
And lastly, the dialogue was almost incomprehensible. It was hard at times to make out what they were saying.
There's a great story to be told. This one didn't tell it.
