Ive seen this movie twice in 4 days. I'm on a hattrick now. Booked in with Serena for a screening some time soon. There is a bit of violence in it, I think. I just closed my eyes and put my fingers in my ears.
First time around the most powerful part was at the end when she was holding the baby. I was bawling. First of all, her words about God giving her courage to bear the mighty freedom of life with out a master and then to be her self fractured me. The shot of Marys looking up from the floor before her beheading was unusally sensual. The horse jumping over the side of the ship in slow motion was spectacular. 8/10
Second time around it was the agonising over killing her cousin and that she was performing the same act as her father had done on her mother... 8.5/10
Ill keep you posted for the third screening.

Hey Ron, stop giving away the plot details. I know it is history and all out there for the searching but if I really wanted to know I would. Pleae put a little teaser before your blog that you are going to be letting these things out. Not cross. Moo
I've now seen it twice too... and it is one of those films that can be different the second time around.
