Film: A Good Woman

There's a reason that A Good Woman didn't show up at your local cinema: it's not that great.

I saw the play on which it was based - Oscar Wilde's Lady Windermere's Fan - in Ipswich some years ago. While the film adapts the play well, it was ultimately a let-down. There are some very funny lines in the dialogue, but they weren't given the time and space to be savoured.

File this one under 'so-so'.
