Where Ronan’s character self-sabotagingly throws herself into the hostile-looking waves at her lowest ebb post-abandonment by her husband, after her rejuvenation thanks to the care and love of Anning, they both share a bathe in calmer waters later on – the swim like a baptism to signify their regeneration.The Potomack Company Terms and Conditions of Sale and Limited Guaranteeīy bidding on items at our auction, you agree to accept the following conditions: And, just as the fossils play as an extended metaphor throughout the film, so does the sea. ![]() The picturesque landscape of the ‘Pearl of Dorset’, Lyme Regis, is utilised for both its quintessential muted British seaside palette, but, just as the oppression lifts from Winslet and Ronan’s characters early gloom, so the canvas around them changes. There’s no conceit here of a lustrous actor transforming themselves into an unglamorous and plain individual, Winslet plays the part absolutely straight, like one of the fossils she has just excavated: hard and drab on the exterior, but with hidden depths and treasures underneath (incidentally, Lee does continually play with these conceptual metaphors throughout the film).Īs with God’s Own Country, it’s a sensorial tour de force by Lee. Being able this time to call on a starrier cast, Lee isn’t let down by Saoirse Ronan, and, especially, Kate Winslet, in the lead role of renowned, reclusive palaentologist, Mary Anning.
