About this product

Product Information

Brazilian director Fernando Meirelles, whose previous film, CITY OF GOD, won awards all over the world and was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 2004 Oscars has crafted another highly entertaining yet important film. Beautifully shot in Kenya, Germany, Sudan, Manitoba, and London, THE CONSTANT GARDENER, based on a bestselling novel by John Le Carre, is an exciting mix of romance and spy thriller. Ralph Fiennes stars as Justin Quayle, a low-level British diplomat who has always gone about his work very quietly, not causing any problems. But after his radical wife, Tessa (Rachel Weisz), is killed, he becomes determined to find out why, thrusting himself into the middle of a very dangerous conspiracy. Jeffrey Caine's powerful screenplay alternates between flashbacks of Justin and Tessa's relationship and Justin's hunt for the truth, which makes him a target although he doesn't know who is after him. Fine support is offered by Danny Huston as his close friend and confidant, Sandy; Bill Nighy as shady British official Sir Bernard Pellegrin; and Hubert Kounde as Arnold Bluhm, an African doctor who might have been a little too friendly with Tessa. Meirelles's pacing is outstanding, switching effortlessly between political intrigue, action adventure, and love story. And Fiennes and Weisz give strong performances playing complex characters that will continually surprise the audience. THE CONSTANT GARDENER is a thrilling tale from start to finish.

Reviews
USA Today - THE CONSTANT GARDENER is a masterwork of suspense, romance and political intrigue. It is a taut and gripping thriller that dazzles the eyes and engages the brain in a way that few recent films have come close to approaching., Movieline's Hollywood Life - THE CONSTANT GARDENER, a thriller with something on its mind, confirms the talents of Brazilian director Fernando Meirelles, Sight And Sound - THE CONSTANT GARDENER is as much an incisive post-mortem of a relationship as it is a politically charged procedural, Rolling Stone - Meirelles emerges with one of the year's best and most provocative movies. Long after it's over, you still feel its sting.

    The top was late getting to me and then a royal mail charge card was received that i had to pay £5 for the package due to not enough postage. I paid the £5 and contacted the seller and i was issued a refund of the item and this seems to have happened to others but i gave a positive as i was refunded even though im out £1 due to the charge but it could be worse.

    Title was ok but did not engage with of the message in the film.

    It was a shame that the sound quality was not at all good. Both my husband and I missed a lot of what was said as we could not access the sub titles. Otherwise the product was good on all counts. It is a story that should be told.
