The Duchess

Left: Keira Knightley and Hayley Atwell.


Went to see "The Duchess" starring Keira Knightley.

An excellent vehicle for Keira's acting talents. A costume extravaganza as well.

The story is a bit more prosaic - how the Duchess of Devonshire copes with the hazards of life by forming an awkward love triangle with co-stars Hayley Atwell and Ralph Fiennes.

Sadly, pretty much a chick flick. No explosions, or horse chases, or even attacks by the French. Just a lot of furtive whispering in the great halls of great houses....

But well done!
