Fantastically vibrant cinematography. A dark story - but a good watch.
Spectacular to look at with breathtaking scenery on location in Africa. Justin (Fiennes) is a mild-mannered diplomat, whose character develops after the death of his wife. The impact Tessa (Weisz) has on him is huge and he discovers his social/moral conscience. Many flashbacks make an interesting story and ensure that Weisz's talents aren't wasted. I have to say that I enjoyed the book a lot more, but it is still a good film in its own right.
was a bit slow to start but as you watched and got into the story it was interesting and heartbreaking at the sametime.was really good movie
