Dame Emma Thompson played Dora Carrington, a woman in a man's world. She is based on a real person who lived. Whether it's accurate, I don't know. Dora prefers being called Carrington rather than Dora. She is taken with homosexual writer Lytton Strachey played by Sir Jonathan Pryce. They're an odd pairing. Despite the obstacles, they seemed to be drawn together over their long term relationship. They both love each other despite society's expectations. Strachey comes into young Dora's life. They both have lovers of their own and even a husband too. Lytton and Carrington seem to belong together despite what we expect them too. The film does move slow at times though. It has a sterling supportive cast.
