0:09 "the Duke of Devonshire; he's in love with me?" "I've only met him twice!" Yea, I see a few issues here.

[@melsdoctor8591]

where are the issues ? cus they only met once ? i know many people who got married without ever meeting before the wedding 😅

[@madelynshinn9910]

Keira knightly is the cover of old fashioned romance movies! Am I right? Elizabeth Bennet, Anna Karenina, Georgiana Spencer...

[@anabellafonseca8439]

She is the Queen

[@jenniferwilkerson2163]

I thought this film really showcased Keira's talent as an actress.The costumes and the setting were gorgeous! She was so good in this film, one of the most sad storylines I've ever seen in a film about a young Duchess, a very emotional performance and yet, the ending with her playing with her other children was so joyful and poignant! If you have a need for a cry with a tub of ice cream movie I highly recommend this!

[@toddchristian7555]

Agreed. Keira Knightley should have won Best Actress for her performance.

[@clarissanm918]

It’s my go to sad amazing movie! I cry all the time time when she stands in that field. I can’t fathom all she went through!

[@scorchiohelen5149]

you are so right

[@athenacheeks6937]

I remember just watching this movie with no idea what I was getting into all because I was a fan of Keira Knightly from all her classical movies and it was so sad and just heart wrenching after I found out the true story and then who she was related too.

[@alishbanadeem2596]

What was the story ?? Can u tell me ??

[@Evergreenforest33]

You can look it up she couldn’t have a son but fell in love with someone else

[@carys7417]

I assume Princess Diana since the family name is Spencer.

[@jeremysmith54565]

@@alishbanadeem2596 Georgiana was Diana Princess of Wales Great Great Great Great Aunt

[@monlokiana]

I was always surprised and shocked that that duchess of Devonshire is actually an ancestor of Lady Diana, and somehow, their two stories are so similar.

[@dianeclehane8574]

It's so strange, but history does seem to repeat itself -- especially with the aristocracy and the royals. (I have been reporting on the British royals for two decades.) The similarities of her story to Diana's are remarkable.

[@anikachowdhury7660]

Same! When I saw Spencer, I don't know why I had a feeling that she might be related to princess Diana. I was shocked to see she actually was.

[@EvidentlyFire]

No no no, not at all similar. The Duchess wasn't a victim at all. It's just we like to view things through a modern lens.

[@KerijaBredlija]

@@EvidentlyFire how was she not???

[@EvidentlyFire]

@@KerijaBredlija well we view the story through our own modern prism. She wouldnt have had such sensitivities being of her time. Infact i think she would be highly offended to be thought of as a victim. Tell me how you think she was a victim.

[@elijahsackville-glucksburg]

This is one of Keira's best performances and yet film academies chose to overlook her because what? she's wearing a corset in another period film? hilarious. Her roles in Pride and Prejudice, Atonement, The Duchess, Anna Karenina, Never Let Me Go, Collette, Official Secrets and Misbehaviour are different characters and even with a mediocre film and a somewhat underwritten script, Keira still shines because of the amount of depth she brings to every character she plays. The film industry has been taking Keira's talents for granted so as Carey Mulligan, Imelda Staunton, Shailene Woodley, Ann Dowd, Kirsten Dunst and hell, even Kristen Stewart. I mean Clouds of Sils Maria, Seberg, Lizzie and Personal Shopper? Kristen Stewart is more than just that garbage of a film saga and Keira Knightley is more than just an actress in a corset in period films.

[@margaretalexander2557]

I just love this movie, one of her best acting roles, what a great sacrifice the true duchess made, to live in a loveless marriage all those years, I truly enjoyed this movie.

[@SLH888]

Oooh yes what an excellent selection you have listed! ♥

[@asklily]

Male actors doing biopics get academy awards and lauded as great. Double standards.

[@clausesanta5042]

Not surprising she was a direct ancestor of Princess Diana.

[@kriyaprashant4141]

Really??

[@clausesanta5042]

@@kriyaprashant4141 Yes. Both are Spencer Family.

[@MDaggatt]

Not quite. She is Princess Diana's great-great-great-great aunt. However, Winston Churchill and Princess Diana are both descended from Sarah Jennings (one of the people from The Favourite), who happened to be Georgiana's great-great-grandmother. It's all very complicated.

[@angelgrace8037]

Yes, both loved by the people, and feared by the powerful.

[@01Mary02]

She's also a direct descendent of Sarah Ferguson through the illegitimate daughter (Eliza Courtney) she had by Sir Charles Grey.

This is such an underrated film and Keira Knightley's performance was phenomenal. This was such a challenging role but Knightley made it look easy. A lot of hype, in 2008, was over Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker but Knightley did a far superior job with a more difficult role (and I enjoyed Ledger's Joker but Knightley was simply better). Throughout her career, Knightley has always been a chameleon, always delivering tremendous performances. She is one of the greatest actors of this generation and deserves more attention from critics.

[@asklily]

For everyone to dismiss this film and her performance really just comes down to double standards and misogyny

[@clairduffy60]

Way, way ahead of her time.

[@jamspice25]

Absolutely

[@EvidentlyFire]

No she wasn't. She was entirely of her time. We are viewing her story through a modern lens and trying to compare her feelings as to how she would feel now. This woman was never a victim.

[@shrabanichatterjee7397]

Anna Karenina, pride and prejudice, the Duchess Keira Knightly surprises with so many beautiful characters

[@almohvn33]

Wow. Just watched this. A must see! I loved this movie. The acting will not disappoint. Splendid. Absolutely a masterpiece!

[@roxysiserova5513]

I watched this the day after watching Anna Karenina. And I didn’t expect these stories to be so similar yet different. I definitely recommend watching both.

It wasnt about fame or wealth. Back then if a woman was divorced or had an affair they were looked down on and casted out of society. Also in this film her husband, the duke, had a high rank and a lot of power.
