Puhhhleeezzzze! Joely Richardson as The Duchess of Windsor? An actress so gorgeous, her character on Nip Tuck is considered "perfect"? Has anyone actually SEEN a picture of Wallis Simpson? U-G-L-Y, you aint got no alibi! Just one more instance of how ridiculous showbiz is.

Actually, in this movie, Richardson was made to look very much like Simpson.
shareAgreed. Check out the photos on the DVD extras. I thought she did a great job and so did the writer of the movie.

My main obejction is that i think she made Wallis very dull - she is portrayed throughout as a sort of passive victim. there seems to be no indication of any interesting personality at all. Nothing that would capture the heart of a king who had hitherto shown on signs of wanting to settle down.
shareThis version of Wallis is somewhat passive. Almost playing a victim.
