Synopsis
Based on Posy Simmonds’ much-loved graphic novel, TAMARA DREWE is
a comedy about a young newspaper journalist torn between two lovers.
Tamara Drewe’s childhood home is being sold, and her return to the
rural Dorset village where she grew up causes something of a stir.
Having left as an awkward teenager she returns as a smouldering
femme fatale, kicking up a storm of envy, lust and gossip wherever
she goes. Tamara is the ultimate modern girl but her story of love
and confusion is timeless.
Filled with humour and romance and starring Gemma Arterton (PRINCE
OF PERSIA, DISAPPEARANCE OF ALICE CREED) as the eponymous Tamara,
the critically acclaimed graphic novel was inspired by Thomas
Hardy’s Far From the Madding Crowd.
British stars Dominic Cooper (AN EDUCATION, MAMMA MIA!), Tamsin
Greig (CUCKOO, SEAN OF THE DEAD), Roger Allam (THE QUEEN, THE WIND
THAT SHAKES THE BARLEY) and Luke Evans (CLASH OF THE TITANS,
SEX&DRUGS&ROCK&ROLL) make up the supporting cast
alongside Bill Camp (PUBLIC ENEMIES, RESERVATION ROAD). The film is
directed by Stephen Frears (THE QUEEN, MRS HENDERSON PRESENTS) and
is a Ruby Films Production, produced by Alison Owen (THE OTHER
BOLEYN GIRL, ELIZABETH). The movie was filmed on location in Dorset,
London and at Pinewood Studios.
