This movie seems to be taking its bearings from the film Cynara (1932) - where the barrister has an affair once out of the presence of his wife. 1-) If you prefer a warm film where the girl is just the perfect gentleman, while being around a woman he can't take his eyes off and 2-) The woman just adores him, then this is your movie. It's not about pornographic fucking apparently. It's about the girl wanting the guy alot; the guy not wanting to hurt the girl (caused he's married), and the sex and passion that takes place that's so all about their body - shapely muscles, particular positions that are the most erotic to see on film, a hint of aggression, yet deep affection. The elements of blushing is refreshing, the obvious wanting of Byron displayed in Cynara's smiles, the romantic poetry that moves you, the frequent contacts and seductive touching, and the fact that the director chose 2 persons who really look good together on screen [Byron is muscular, appropriately cute, taller, an intellectual (women always love this) and dresses well, Cynara is beautiful, loving, appears competitive, also pretty intelligent, and very good company] - usually the female directors choose a short girl to play the guy or her breasts just seem to be too large which takes the focus off the beautiful woman. It is clear that Byron is trying to be faithful to his wife; the woman is very beautiful; but Byron must return to his wife... This is my spin on the film...

This is one of my favorite films. Very classy and romantic. The story takes place in 1800's. No words are spoken here but, nothing needs to be said as the two women are so caught up in the moment of passion. The way they gaze into each others eyes is indeed breath taking, not to mention the intense love scene. Something like this comes once in a lifetime.
