GIVEAWAY: Tess of the D’Urbervilles!

1/29/2009 Posted by Admin


Week in Rewind is pleased to offer a giveaway of
Tess of the D’Urbervilles!

Own it on DVD now!

Thanks to our friends at BBC Home Video
for this opportunity!

Product description: "Filmed entirely in high definition, this passionate, sensual and very modern version of Thomas Hardy's notorious novel follows the heart-breaking story of Tess Durbeyfield (Gemma Arterton, James Bond: Quantum of Solace) as she is thrust into a life permeated with turmoil and despair. When Tess is driven by family poverty to claim kinship with the wealthy D'Urbervilles, she falls into the clutches of the manipulative and fraudulent Alec D'Urberville (Hans Matheson, The Tudors). A very different man, Angel Clare (Eddie Redmayne, The Other Boleyn Girl), seems to offer Tess love and salvation, but she must choose whether to reveal her past or remain silent. Unstintingly gorgeous and romantic, this new adaptation is an intense, moving and provocative depiction of Hardy's tragically beautiful story."

The contest will end on April 14, 2009.
