Kate Beckinsale turns in perhaps the best performance of her career in a film based on the novel Lady Susan by Jane Austen, in which the beautiful, amoral and pennyless widow causes mayhem in the lives of all around her. Scheming, flirtatious, duplicitous and blithely uncaring about her daughter's happiness, we cannot but admire Austen's skill in creating a very naughty but strangely endearing anti-heroine.
