Lady Chatterley’s Lover – 7

This is all Emma Corrin – and you certainly see all of Emma Corrin. She is gorgeous and affecting as a young woman consumed by her own sexuality. By contrast, the two men in her life are underdrawn, or poorly drawn; and the larger themes involving gender, class and society, that I expect are developed more fully in D.H. Lawrence’s novel, are given short shrift. The costumes, settings and characters are a reminder that Downton Abbey is just over the hill. And there is Emma Corrin.
