once again,the British have made a great little independent film.i suppose you could classify it as a dark comedy.it's peopled with motley crew of characters,and brimming with over with deceit duplicity,betrayal,pain and irony.Gemma Arterton portrays the title character,who is at the center of the story.having just seen her in The Disappearance of Alice Creed,(which i also recommend)a totally different kind of film,it's obvious she has talent.the supporting cast is great as well.

Stephen Frears(The Queen)directed the film.the film is rated R due to some language and sensuality,but i would have rated it 14A,but parents should use their discretion nonethe- less.anyway,for me,'Tamara Drewe' is an 8/10
