In Regards to Gemma Arterton’s Gams and Short-Shorts

It’s an image whose appeal I totally understand — not arresting, exactly… but eye-catching, certainly. That said, Gemma Arterton’s clingy red top and short-shorts, the entire thrust of its American marketing, are going to give plenty of folks the wrong impression about Tamara Drewe, for what it’s worth. There are Thomas Hardy references and a bovine stampede in this film, people.
