      Audience Member Unpredictably, this is one of my favourite films and favourite books. I originally watched the film because Samantha Bond is in it and she is one of my favourite actresses but I immediately fell in love with it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Bit of romantic froth. The plot os predictable. A few nice performances, but not worth much as a drama or a historical piece.
