i like this movie above all others . it be multi layer while there be so much to see and appreciate . every viewing bring a new appreciation of the story line and the plot and the character . faultlessly acted and extremely enjoyable if you take the time to watch it and appreciate it . i love the interaction between the player while the subtle relationship while the period atmosphere . ralph fiennes be perfectly cast a the brooding lover and geoffrey the wronged husband be beautifully underplay by colin firth . the scene in the sand storm where catherine and el masy be discuss the different type of sand storm be one of the high light of the film and where the affair really start . the other relationship between hanna and el masy be yet another layer of the movie which be totally enchanting ( and heart rending ) . a worthy winner of so many award .
