Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Roman Polanski adapted Thomas Hardy's novel Tess of the D'Urbervilles and came up with this moody, haunting film starring Nastassia Kinski as the farm girl who is misused by the aristocrat for whom she works and who is then caught in a marriage where her initial happiness soon turns to grief. Fans of the novel may feel unpersuaded by Polanski's effort to marry Hardy's Dorset vision with his own fascination with psychosexual impulses toward survival, but the film is an often stunning thing to see, and Kinski's sensitive, intelligent performance lingers in the memory. --Tom Keogh
Synopsis
A drama based in 19th Century England. A peasant sends his daughter, Tess, to live with a rich cousin, Alec D'Urberville. There, she is seduced and becomes pregnant. Based on the novel 'Tess Of The D'Urbervilles' by Thomas Hardy. Winner of three Academy Awards: Best Costume Design, Best Cinematography and Best Art Direction.
