I will be the first to admit that I am quite attached to well-done period films, as well as to classic literature. I found this particular movie to fit my taste fairly well, and Gillian Anderson as Lily Bart makes the movie all come together. The acting was a little off in some parts of the film, but those glitches were usually from the smaller roles. The cinematography in this movie (by Remi Adefarasin) was one of its best aspects, as light and dark and slow camera spans around rooms added greatly to the drama. I appreciated the casting of the lead roles (such as Anthony LaPaglia), and overall my view of this film is moderately high. Definitely a film to be examined more closely by those who also enjoyed it.
