Iris: Review

Two extraordinary performances anchor this sturdy adaptation of Elegy for Iris, literary critic John Bayley's tender 1998 memoir of his marriage to the late novelist, philosopher and playwright Iris Murdoch. Kate Winslet plays the Iris of the mid-1950s, a bold, sexually adventurous thirtysomething Oxford philosophy scholar; Judi Dench portrays the aging Murdoch of the 1990s, author of 25 novels who's struggling to finish her 26th as the pall of Alzheimer's disease falls over her rapidly deteriorating mind.
