New trailer for Stephen Frears 'Tamara Drewe'

By Anthony Pearson Aug 27, 2010, 20:34 GMT

Based on Posy Simmonds¡¯ beloved graphic novel of the same name (which was itself inspired by Thomas Hardy¡¯s classic Far From the Madding Crowd) this wittily modern take on the romantic English pastorale is a far cry from Hardy¡¯s Wessex.  Tamara Drewe¡¯s present©day English countryside¡ªstocked with pompous writers, rich weekenders, bourgeois bohemians, a horny rock star, and a great many Buff Orpington chickens and Belted Galloway cows¡ªis a much funnier place.
