Frances H 10/04/2014 The best version of Tess. See more 06/14/2014 doing an essay on this. I'd say this is not what I thought it would be tbh ð' See more 02/25/2014 I love this show. <3 See more 05/05/2013 somehow i liked this one more than the 1978 version.. See more 04/02/2013 Great adaptation if the classic book. See more 11/29/2012 I have seen both versions of this film ( I saw the one with Gemma Arterton first) then I came to this one. They both just about killed me, the author of the book that this film is derived from must have been very grim indeed. To see Tess suffer her entire life, only to get a glimmer of love and then.....argggg. I was floored. Definitely worth seeing, even more than once if you can tolerate the madness.
