Frieda von Richtofen Weekley: Yes.
D.H. Lawrence: I'd like that very much.
Frieda von Richtofen Weekley: Good.
D.H. Lawrence: But I won't.
Frieda von Richtofen Weekley: O why not?

There are 2 reasons to see this movie (and only 2). Really beautiful scenery, and wonderful acting by Kenneth Branagh. Other than these, I found the story underdeveloped, and the movie ended just as it was beginning to get interesting. We see some flashbacks of DH Lawrence's life. However, whereas the cover of the movie suggests that the focus would be on the relationship between DH Lawrence and a married woman, this relationship is not the focus of the movie. In fact, this is a movie that looks at DH Lawrence, without focusing. Therefore, one is surprised when the movie ends, but not sorry.
