The movie was real as the book. A good book lives on the reader's mind. A good movie does the same. Lady Chatterly was long, not really easy to consume. It was ,however, worth looking in. Except the theme of the movie seemed a little outdated. Female sexual liberation is old as Madonna. The rebellion against male dominance, or the bourgeois society had gone so long, now we do not really see discussing socialism over the dinner table. Except its message (Someone might argue it as if there was nothing new in the story, what was the point of movie making. I totally agree, but it is an enjoyable movie at its own rights.) The camera take an honest look on human & nature. Too real as the flesh in the movie, nothing was altered to exaggerate aesthetically in the movie. All too real. The movie starts slowly as Chatterly's mind and life until it starting to shape (A very slow transition). Then finally she starting to live her own life. It is predictable but consumable. the movie has its own charm as the female leader. Openly naive but innocently guilty. The ending was weak but bearable. If you enjoyed Jane Campion's movies, which were funk, this one is classic, more like a piece of Schuman. Warning you that if you are not going to enjoy D.H Lawrence's lengthy book of female liberation, don't buy a ticket. You would fall a sleep. It goes nearly 3 hours. If you are, however, a fan of Lawrence, then it is an enjoyable piece. Indeed, the charm of the movie, is coming after. Just like a good literature, would lives on your mind. I loved it in a rainy Saturday afternoon.
