363. The Duchess (2008)

October 3, 2014

Another Keira Knightley period piece... At least this one wasn't terrible. I actually felt sorry for Knightley's character. She played a young woman wed to the Duke of Devonshire (Ralph Fiennes) in order to birth a son for him to have an heir. She could seemingly only birth daughters, so the Duke was a total jerk to her. He started sleeping with her best friend but when she wanted to sleep with someone else he threatened to take her children away. It wasn't my kind of movie, but as far as these movies go it wasn't entirely intolerable. Watch it if you're in to these types of things, I guess.
