The Duchess...

As I said earlier, I would let you know what I thought of the new 'Duchess' film, staring Keira Knightley. Well it was absolutely FANTASTIC!!!!!

Based on a true story, the tale traces the cosseted, tightly corseted late-18th-century life of Georgiana Spencer, the Duchess of Devonshire.
Born in 1757, Georgiana went from scampering merrily across the emerald expanse of the family estate under the pitiless gaze of her mother to trembling under the unloving touch of the Duke of Devonshire.
Although apart from the storyline, depicting that of the time; it was of course the exceptional costumes, the fabulously ornamented gowns, the extraordinary wigs and verdant landscapes dotted with grazing sheep that made this film so beautiful, portraying an idealistic fashion environment.
This film truly brought tears to my eyes...
