If you loved Bitter Moon, try Tess
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Roman Polanski, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Bitter Moon, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Tess is
Polanski here gives us his Hardy adaptation, for better or worse. Tess Durbeyfield is sent to the d'Urberville estate, where she finds herself at the mercy of Alec, a dubious character. It certainly looks very pretty, if nothing else.
