    I think if you care for James, you must see it. It is not an adaptation but an interpretation.

    A splendid adaptation that will be hard for the others to match. The Portrait of a Lady, directed by Jane Campion, brings intelligence and sensitivity to a story rich in psychological subtlety and sociological detail.
