Title: JOHN CURRAN, OPUS 3
Review: **** 2006. Based on Somerset Maugham'sThe Painted Veiland directed by John Curran. Golden Globe in the Best Musical score category. A British doctor, cheated by his wife, brings her to a farther region of China where she'll finally help him fight a cholera outbreak. The novels and short stories written by Somerset Maugham (1874-1965) are little jewels of sensibility that are not so easily adaptable for the cinema medium. So we can only rejoice with this achievement I highly recommend to those of you searching for a recent movie with a classic plot.
