The Moviesite Fan Club comments

Meagan M. Englehart: I felt that the cinematography of the film contributed to the beauty of the period. The representation of the classes during the period brought to new light the struggles that those of the lower class endured. The choices that women were afforded during the period were few and far between. Jarques Cloete: Riveting. Blaise Quinton: Really beautiful. No scimping in the set and costume departments. A really superb period piece. Enrique Lopez Campos: I loved it! Karin O'Donnell: One of the best movies I have ever seen. Juan Pablo Salazar Vega: It is an excellent movie with an excellent cast. Jason Wang: I love it very much! Tarryn Naicker: 'Lustful & tempting.' To watch a movie where a woman is in control of a man's every desire is intriguing. Peter Kri: Like a beautiful 112 minutes long painting.... I love it. Johan Muller: Absolutely superb! Catherine McCormacks performance was breath-taking. Alisa Huang: I love Venice. Ashley van Deijl: It is just so wonderful for me that someone can love another more than life itself. After this movie, I realized, there is no greater love than that of your true love. Lily Lyn: It's good to see a woman stand up to assert her will. I realy admire the woman with courage. James Baillieu: It was stunning! I love Rufus! Sherry Rhodes: Outstanding...intelligent...perfect. Shan Mukerjee: Lush, Spectacular and Breathtaking. Not to be missed...to use all the traditional cliches... Billy Maritz: A truly great performance by the actors, in the portrayl of that life and time. It's not just a movie but view on their life, their time, suffering, love. How far would you go for love? Anu Tolvanen: Very good! I liked it very much! Isma Manitsa: You can feel the power that is called love. Love that is painted with beautiful words and very intriguing realistic twist. Very impressive, Catherine! Christo Becker: The parallels between this movie and todays society are clear. Women today are all taught to hide their passions and feelings. When they express themselves society labels them as sluts. Men still have their "LADIES" , whether escorts or simply plain pornography. Men still desire women with something different. Melissa Patrick: It is the best movie I have seen in a long time. I think it deserves to stand up on the same mark as Braveheart because of Veronica's courage and honour. She was truly a heroic woman.
