Tragedy results when three brothers fall for a woman (Embeth Davidtz) abandoned by her married lover in late-1800s England.

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.

Rated: 2/4

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.
