I went to see it, I agree it was slow and ponderous, the Day-Lewis character is very exacting and pedantic and not that nice. Without giving anything away, the girl who plays his muse dishes out her revenge literally when she is on the receiving end of his difficult behaviour. The film does evoke the post war glamour of bespoke dressmaking very well though, quite glad I saw it, still think he is one of our finest actors and Lesley Manville was very good as his sister.
