Reviews for The Baroness and the Pig
The falseness at the film's core comes from the uncritical assumption that the present is wiser than the past.
Amateurish details tend to disappear in the face of the superb performances from Clarkson and Feore.
Michael Mackenzie who directed and wrote the film based on his own play has a real feel for melodrama but not subtlety.
How did writer/director Michael Mackenzie manage to mix all the ingredients for an absorbing historic drama -- an A-list cast, lavish set and costume design, a score by Philip Glass and a gorgeous chateau setting -- into a B-grade gothic melodrama?
