Sooo... I'm done reading Amanda Foreman's Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire. I was willing to revise my opinion , but I think even less of of the film now that I read this well researched biography. Not as sensational as the publisher's press release would make you believe, it's a thorough and engaging investigation of Georgiana Spencer's life, as well as British society and politics during the reign of George III. I highly recommend the book, and issue an even more emphatic "Thumbs down!" as far as the movie is concerned.
