The Duchess

- 3 Eberts

I thought this was very well done. There are some interesting historical events swirling around in the background, such as the American and French revolutions and the slave trade, but this movie is really about life among the aristocracy.

The duchess was a very strong women and an excellent role for Keira Knightley. What I found most interesting about the movie was how bad even the rich and famous were treated, if they were women.

Roger really liked the movie and gave it 3 1/2 stars.

The movie doesn't have a lot of action or plot turns, but if you like historical drama you will probably like The Duchess.
