      Frances H The best version of Tess. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/04/14 Full Review Audience Member doing an essay on this. I'd say this is not what I thought it would be tbh ð' Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member I love this show. <3 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member somehow i liked this one more than the 1978 version.. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Great adaptation if the classic book. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member 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.
