If you loved Bitter Moon, try Tess
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
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.
