My problem with the film was that none of the characters is really interesting.

Feast of July in movie form suffers from the same weakness as the H.E. Bates novel on which it is based. To wit: For all its melodrama, sexual tension and violence, the story is a bore.

an extraordinarily difficult to follow film, full of talky, dull melodrama and the glamorization of "proper" 19th century sensibilities

I think this movie is both dramatic and funny. Embeth Davidtz did a great job

This movie surprised me. It could have been melodramatic (as the poster suggests) but it wasn't.

I know I'm in the minority, but somehow I felt Embeth Davidtz played against her inborn likability here, and it made for a depressing movie without anyone to empathize with.
