What a perfect setting for a comedy: a Writers' Retreat , a literary guest house in the very rural Dorset, including garden and small animals, where a casual a whole panoply of bizarre characters, the honor is. A colorful little group more or less successful authors runs a creative break back into the country, including the ever-brooding and indecisive literature professor Glen, of his major work of Thomas Hardy simply unable to turn. care of all these in the failure of nascent lives with scones and cakes with love and caring the careworn Beth Hardiment, whereas her husband Nicholas as a guiding spirit this creative random pile with a flourish together. He does so as a successful author inferior thrillers, however, far more convincing as a gifted actor as a heartthrob, and especially when he and his wife all the half-length play to be warmly felt remorse because she once again will throw for an affair with a young author from the house. As an additional and eponymous ingredient in this fragile idyll appears then the former ugly duckling of the village, which had now set up his nose, has achieved professional success and otherwise does a fine figure: Gemma " Strawberry Fields " Arterton as Tamara Drewe . As she returns now seemingly innocent and with endless legs into the village of her youth, she takes care of the general hormone push that around them triggers a hearty hurricane. The characters in it are her school sweetheart, her new affair (one directly to the mail order catalog for hallucinogenic substances sprung Rock musician) and two girlies, whose enthusiasm for this very glutäugigen Drummer intrigues complicated even further while bringing forward. Since fib is uninhibited and deceived, because flying pans and pots, as it bounces in different situations and with different motives into bed.
The template for Tamara Drewe , the latest film by veteran Stephen Frears is the graphic novel (more than graphic novel , to be exact) the same name by Posy Simmonds . Moira Buffini screenwriter , the sarcastic and profound History of a rotation, where the absurd comic, also has pace, wit and a certain lightness into it brought, and multiplies the literary allusions to Thomas Hardy's Far from the Madding Crowd (which I for incorrect knowledge of English literature is not here delve into). The end is less bloody, but - after all, this is a British comedy - still grim enough. At some point, then strapped Tamara Drewe, which, in its naivety around so everything has been done. To reach this finding, it must get involved, however calculated and relatively long with the main bad guy of the film. Is it revenge? Is it naive? The collateral damage are high, but in the end everyone will get what is rightfully his - or, more precisely, will his true desires and dreams (again) conscious and ceases to pursue the wrong goals. Even the stressed cows calm down again, and so will be good.
Technicals: Tamara Drewe be seen from today in the German-speaking cinema. The original book was published in English on Jonathan Cape (ISBN 978-0-2240-7817-7), in German at Reprodukt (ISBN 978-3-941099-31-9).
