The Duchess* (12A)
Hollywood Film Theatre, Ipswich

In 18th century England, Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire enters into a loveless marriage, befriends her husband's lover, and herself enters into an affair with upcoming politician Charles Grey.
Adequate costume sex drama with a few subtle nods to Georgiana's 20th century descendant Princess Diana, but hard-working in itself as a historical period piece, and beautiful to look at.
