Lady Chatterley

Rating:
Summary: Well acted, fairly explicit, not on Masterpiece Theatre soon
Review: This adaption of D.H. Lawrence has fairly explicit content, for a BBC adaption, and certainly won't be on Masterpiece Theatre, any time soon; at least, without some heavy editing. Ms. Richardson displays quite a bit of flesh, in this adaption, as does Mr. Bean
(not the one played by Rowan Atkinson) and there are a few suprising inclusions of the most infamous word (we all know what that is) in the English language. Wilby is sufficiently stuff, bitter, and arrogant as Lord Chatterley. Bean is rough, yet tender, as Mellors; and Richardson is delicate but very sexy, as Lady Chatterley, and she has an attractive but stuffy sister, who could do with a bit of what Constance got. Worth a definite look.

Summary: Excellent, compelling miniseries!
Review: Very entertaining look at Lady Chatterley. After reading the book I was very curious to see how the story could be brought to life! Ken Russell has done a fine job and the two lead actors bring life to Lady C and Mellors. Prior to this movie, I did not think Sean Bean (Mellors) was anything special, but after seeing his portrayl in this movie- all that has changed. He is superb and an excellent leading man- just perfect- I do not see how any woman could not fall for him in this role. Easy to see how Lady C does! Buy this DVD- you will not be disappointed!
