Excellent drama filmed in CORNWALL, based on the novel My Cousin Rachel by Daphne du Maurier. Well-acted with interesting supporting characters and lovely settings with a good build-up of tension and suspense. Rachel Weisz is pretty riveting to watch. It may seem a bit slow to some viewers not patient enough for a sophisticated period drama, but it's actually well-paced and rich in mystery as well as colorful and charming local details. Some of the panoramic scenes on horseback may remind a viewer of the recent Poldark with Aidan Turner, also set in CORNWALL.
