Résumés(1)
Based on Thomas Hardy's classic novel, this British mini-series tells the story of a destitute girl, Tess Durbeyfield (Gemma Arterton), who claims she is one of the wealthy D'Urbevilles to get a slice of the family fortune. But Tess enters far deeper troubles when she finds herself at the mercy of one of the D'Urbervilles's malicious sons (Hans Matheson). A series of tragedies befall her, but at the bottom of her grief, a stranger (Eddie Redmayne) seems to offer a way out. Will she risk resurrecting the past to take it?

With a cast that includes Gemma Arterton, Eddie Redmayne, and Hans Matheson, Tess' story becomes very relevant because they are the faces of today. Thomas Hardy's world has never been an easy one to understand, much less to sympathize with. It is therefore very important to repeatedly face the challenges posed by adaptations of his works. This BBC mini-series is not tainted by the tragedy of Polanski's life, it's just very faithful. Luckily. The ending at Stonehenge was epic. I would love to see a similarly successful adaptation of "Jude the Obscure." #bbc
