Determined to ruin the upper-class Fairley family who wronged her, Emma Harte (Jenny Seagrove) aims to become one of the richest women in the world. Although anachronistic for a woman born around 1890, it is exhilarating to watch her think and act like a contemporary woman with the benefits of late-20th-century feminism. In just over five hours, this Emmy-nominated version of Barbara Taylor Bradford's bestselling novel <I>A Woman of Substance</I> traces Emma's life from overworked Yorkshire maid to the triumphant 79-year-old matriarch (Deborah Kerr) of a vast business empire.<p> Married twice, but only truly loving a man she could never marry, Emma devotes herself to building her business empire. Surrounded by a loyal few, including Irishman Blackie O'Neill (Liam Neeson), Emma lives her life as a strong, uncompromising protagonist similar to <I>Gone with the Wind</I>'s Scarlett O'Hara in a social environment reminiscent of <I>Upstairs, Downstairs</I>. Her life is a sort of feminist retrospective on the social issues of 1890s-to-1930s England--poverty, illegitimate children, illness, anti-Semitism, World War I, whether to marry for security or passion, the role of women in the workplace, and such--making <I>A Woman of Substance</I> a historical and inspiring film to watch. <I>--Tara Chace</I> *Viewer Reviews* This Movie is very moving in all aspects. It encourages you to work hard in order to reach your dreams but it also shows the valueble things you can loose in life if all your efforts are concentrated in it, which is family. It makes you ask yourself , Is it worth it? Although I was thrill that she made it to the top, I was also sad for what it made the kids to be bitter. Their attitude towards her was her own fault. You can not expect love and loyalty from your kids if you have not teach them how, if you were not an example. Overall it was beautiful. Back To Top
