Synopsis
"he Invisible Woman is a 2013 British biographical drama film directed by Ralph Fiennes and starring Fiennes, Felicity Jones, Kristin Scott Thomas and Tom Hollander. Written by Abi Morgan, and based on the book of the same name by Claire Tomalin, the film is about the secret love affair between Charles Dickens and Nelly Ternan, which lasted for thirteen years until his death in 1870. . . . The story is told through a series of flashbacks by Nelly in Margate in 1883, thirteen years after Dickens's death. She is now married to Oxford graduate George Wharton-Robinson who is twelve years her junior and unaware that she was once the mistress of Charles Dickens." [Wikipedia] "A wonderful fact to reflect upon that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every others." [Text on opening screen]
