Title: beautiful
Review: The year is 1925. Kitty (Naomi Watts) is a naive woman, whose mother expects her to marry soon. She meets a young dull and shy man, Doctor Walter Fane (Edward Norton), a bacteriologist. They marry, and soon find themselves in China. Walter discovers Kitty's affair with a diplomat, Charles Townsend (Liev Shreiber); Walter then will force Kitty to come with her to a remote village ravaged by cholera.He is very much in love with her, but it is not reciprocal. After the affair is discovered, their relationship soon becomes cold, and indifferent.This is a movie about love lost and love earned - the director showed this well, the script was decent enough and believable, still a little too predictable for my taste. (Anyone will see the ending coming miles away!)The cast is quite excellent, and the characters they play are rather likable and invite the viewer to join them on a fascinating journey in 1920s China.It is a beautiful, well-adapted, well-directed film to watch.
