...cinematography of the film is beautifully rendered. The camera is a living, prowling creature of the inner and outer English lanscape. Interior shots are filmed in warm, sepia-toned pigments that highlight the humanity, as well as the coarseness, of English life. Similarly, the film-maker captures the indifferent cruelty--tooth and claw--of nature with cold, harsh shots.

...score is also well-suited to Henry's interior moods, although, upon occasion, it borders on the cliched.

Most of the interior shots are done in warm, gentle lighting, making the tones subdued while the textures are palpable. The velvet and silk costumes are nothing short of sumptuous. Indeed, the entire film is a lavish production which has been a huge success and garnered many awards...
