The Duchess

Last night I watched The Duchess. I really enjoyed the movie. I do love period pieces. And I really was intrigued by the whole history of Georgiana Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire.

I think Keira Knightly did a wonderful job as The Duchess. She is one of my favorite actresses, and she does so well in movies like this. It's really sad how she is so excited to be marrying the Duke of Devonshire, thinking that he loves her and wants to marry her. And not knowing that it's an obligation for him to produce an heir. So he chose her, not out of love, but necessity.

The costumes were beautiful, and the scenery was just beautiful.

Highly recommend seeing this one. :)
