Great Fun! The effervescent Cate Blanchette and Jeremy Northam once again show why they are the Bette Davis and Lawrence Olivier for the new millenium. Minnie Driver ALWAYS delivers (and grows more stunningly lovely film-by-film) and Rupert Everett's abilities shine (making this tinsel-townie forget about the on-going controversy over his private life). These four Brits are as fine a cast as one could desire. Unfortunately Julianne Moore, an American TRYING to be a Brit reaches her nominal height in acting. But ignore her strained "performance" and see this bright, timeless serio-comic tale of true heart-feelings over-coming dastardly nit-witage. I am biased- the directing adds this to the building library of the new British filmaking that I am scrambling to see more of. This one is not so Merchant-Ivoryish as just clearly, and joyfully executed entertainment that includes the audience as intelligences, not lemmings. Have fun here!
