Review
Elderly Dame Judi Dench plays real-life English novelist Iris Murdoch at the end of her life, as Alzheimer's disease claims the writer’s mind. Sounds boring, huh? Well, fear not: things get lap-expandingly exciting during several flashbacks to Iris in her prime, where she’s played by the more deliciously full-bodied than ever Kate Winslet. Throughout the movie, Kate-as-Iris claims to be devoted to her nerdy stutterer husband, but the ultra-curvaceous crumpet shares her bitable bits with any man she pleases (and Kate pleases every man). One highlight is when hubby catches an eyeful in the bedroom: a topless Kate bucking and whinnying while astride her latest conquest. Saddle up!
