Worked at times for me as a very subtextual doomed romance between two women, but it's mostly not great. I haven't read the book and yet I still get the feeling that too much was removed to keep the plot compelling; there's a very boring section near the middle where Malkovich, who seems to have no motivation but to be evil, breaks down the formerly strong Kidman character, who seems to have no motivation but to be a victim. Oh, and what the fuck was with the opening credits? That was embarrassing!

Not as successful for director Jane Campion as The Piano, this costume drama based on Henry James's novel nevertheless makes for compelling viewing.

A criminally underrated film that takes commending (and successful) risks in adapting a classic Henry James novel. The film's both heartbreaking and brilliantly acted / directed by Jane Campion, Nicole Kidman and Barbara Hershey. Really... An Incredible work that needs to be rescued and recontextualized from its original (botched) release by the now defunct Gramercy Pictures, a Polygram/Universal company. (Also check Wojciech Kilar's score: it's mindblowingly beautiful.)

Film not so good but Malkovich nailed it!

This film has amazing cinematography and is well-acted but the direction does not reveal the frankly mystifying motivations of, and actions taken by, the central characters
