thus film is awesome, I've watched it over a hundred times, and i feel like i see/ understand something new every time i watch it, whether its the dialogue, the scenery, costumes, the body language between the actors...

oh, and my have character has to be Mr Noyse, he is so sneaky!

One of the greatest British movies ever made. Thanks so much for posting. But everyone should buy the DVD as well - legality notwithstanding, there's some fantastic extra material and Greenaway's commentary is, predictably, stunning.
