Glenn Close turns in an astonishing title performance as a woman in late-19th-century Ireland who, for the economic security otherwise unobtainable, lives in the guise of a man so she can hold down a butler's position at a posh resort. When "Albert" learns that the hotel's affable new housepainter (Janet McTeer) is maintaining the same sort of deception--and is at peace with it--she seeks to address her own unhappiness. Mia Wasikowska, Pauline Collins, Aaron Johnson co-star. 113 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital 5.1; Subtitles: English (SDH), Spanish; audio commentary; deleted scenes, theatrical trailer.
