Witness Weisz in Oscar-winning performance
Rachel Weisz picked up a deserved Oscar this week for her role in The Constant Gardener (Universal, €21.99), in which she plays Tessa, a human rights campaigner and wife of minor diplomat Justin Quayle (Ralph Fiennes).
In his quest to find out why she was murdered, Justin, a keen gardener, applies his patient forensic skills in this fine political murder mystery set in Kenya. What he unravels is not such a huge surprise, given that the backdrop is Africa, after all, where corruption and sleight of hand by multi-nationals is synonymous.
