Not
surprisingly, this fascinating glimpse into the short life of poet
Sylvia Plath and her passionate relationship with Ted Hughes is a
favorite of mine. Paltrow handled the complex role very well, at
times even brilliantly. Craig as usual ignored his critics, and let his
performance speak for itself.
If these two actors weren't having their own passionate affair while filming, it would shock me, as the familiarity and chemistry are unmistakable.

| She probably sees her death approaching... | Now Ted is barely touching her |
