(12 reviews) Lady Chatterly's LoverThis version of Lady Chatterly's Lover is one of the better versions of D.H. Lawrence's novel. It was a little long (over 2 hours) for my short attention span, but it is engaging and the protagonists are likeable. While it is a good adaptation, the relationships between the characters are different from the relationships in the novel. It's worth watching if you enjoy a good love story that's a bit dramatic.

Nicely done.
I am a D.H. Lawrence fan, but I purposely didn't re-read the book just before seeing this, because I wanted to judge the film on its own merits. I was a bit unsure about the role being handed to Sylvia Kristel, but she showed she's more than just Emmanuelle eye candy; she can actually act, and the movie comes across very well as literature-with-small-L as well as erotica. Highly recommended. December 13, 2007

Lady Chatterley's Lover 1982 version
what a dog of a movie,if someone is looking for a better movie version of this story buy the new (1992) or later americanized version April 6, 2007
Disappointing Adaptation
I think this adaptation of Lady Chatterley's Lover is lacking in so many ways. The actors are mediocre at best. Roles like Hilda miscast. Nothing against the actress in this role but she seems old enough to be Connie's mother rather than sister. And I rather wanted to tell the gamekeeper to keep his clothes on. Additionally, there doesn't seem to capture the passion and quiet desperation of the characters. If one wants to see a good film as well as a film that's faithful to the spirit of Lady Chatterley's Lover...This is not it. April 5, 2007
