A Good Woman

Based on Oscar Wilde's Lady Windermere's Fan and blessed with scintillating dialogue and a phenomenal international cast, A Good Woman is scandalously enjoyable. Channelling the delectably barbed comedic talents of the acclaimed Oscar Wilde, this is an engrossing and elegant voyage into seduction, glamour and society. Set on the stunning Amalfi Coast in the 1930s, A Good Woman follows New York socialite Mrs Erlynne (Helen Hunt), a woman disliked by wives for catching the attention of their husbands. Forced to leave New York, she heads for Italy, the picturesque playground of the rich and famous and the very place that the newlywed couple Robert and Meg Windermere (Scarlett Johansson) are spending their summer season. Mrs Erlynne's appearance causes a stir and looks to threaten the idyllic Windermere marriage. At its outset, A Good Woman appears to be a tale of licentious betrayal; as the dust settles, it proves to be an ode to unexpected loyalty. Told with an effortless charm and intrigue thanks to its clever storyline, A Good Woman is joyful entertainment.
