Synopsis

Tamara Drewe is a 2010 film directed by Stephen Frears. The screenplay was written by Moira Buffini, based on the graphic novel of the same name written by Posy Simmonds. The comic strip which serves as source material was a modern reworking of Thomas Hardy's nineteenth century novel Far from the Madding Crowd.
A young newspaper writer returns to her home town in the English countryside. Her childhood home is being prepared for sale. She is instinctively a bit shy and emotional girl but she reinvents herself as a smouldering femme fatale, kicking up a storm wherever she goes.
