One of four big Gainsborough pictures from Lew Grade! - By: FAMOUS NAME, 24 Jan 2008

One of four big pictures made intended to re-create the Gainsborough era of British movie-making. These were made at the end of the 80s. Successfully done with tremendous productions using lavish sets & costumes. Some of the greatest names in modern British cinema starred.

'Duel of Hearts' is based on a great novel by the one & only queen of romance Barbara Cartland, but there's enough dramatic plots here to appeal to everyone! Stars; Geraldine Chaplin, Richard Johnson, Virginia McKenna, Beryl Reid, Billie Whitelaw & a very dishy Tom Adams! (one could be forgiven for thinking it is Alexandra Bastedo of 'The Champions' in the leading role - but it is in fact Alison Doody!)

The making of these four great pictures (the other three being: 'The Ghost in Monte Carlo', 'A Hazard of Hearts' & 'The Lady & the Highwayman' - alll these big pictures are extremely hard to come by now) were what made Lew Grade my hero! If only we had someone else to continue his great work of bringing these Gainsborough-style pictures back to the cinema of today...

Five Stars!
This ia a great romance with a twist of suspense! - By: Monica Murphy, 12 Feb 2001
This movie does a fanstastic job of keeping you on the edge of your seat,yet making you smirk & sneer at the characters involved in the plot. Perfect to watch on a dreary or not so dreary day.
