Dakota Fanning replacing Saoirse Ronan in Emma Thompson's 'Effie' August 16 Source: Deadline Just last November, one Casting Tidbits update revealed The Lovely Bones star Saoirse Ronan landed the title role in Effie, a biopic about Effie Gray, the wife of English art critic John Ruskin, who became entangled in a famous Victorian love triangle. Now Deadline reports Dakota Fanning will star in the period drama from writer/actres****a Thompson which chronicles the strange romance, or lack thereof, between Gray and Ruskin. Despite her beauty, Ruskin was said to be disgusted with Gray's body, did not consummate the marriage and annulled it, allowing her to marry Ruskin's protégé John Everett Millais.Though Orlando Bloom was once attached to play Millais, apparently Tom Sturridge (Pirate Radio) has stepped into the role. In addition, Thompson will also star in the film as Lady Eastlake, who takes Effie under her wing when it becomes clear the union was destroying the young woman. Her husbandGreg Wise (Johnny English) will play Ruskin while Julie Walters (Harry Potter franchise) and Derek Jacobi (The King's Speech) will play his parents. Finally, Edward Fox (Gandhi) is in talks to play Eastlake's husband Sir Charles a man who was not only fed up with Ruskin and his radical ideas, but also the main patron of the Royal Academy which held sway over what constituted fine art. Richard Laxton (An Englishman in New York) is directing the film which begins shooting in Scotland on October 17th with shooting to follow in London and Venice as well. The cast has been shuffled on this project for awhile with Carey Mulligan once attached to the title role as well, but a copyright infringement claim held up the film, which resulted in scheduling conflicts for the previously attached cast members. Producer Don Rosenfeld says, "It’****a Thompson’s first original script after doing several fine adaptations, and it gets to the heart of Victorian England." Though this sounds a bit more along the lines of her work on Sense and Sensibility as opposed to Nanny McPhee, her work on the page should make for a great British drama down the road.。《风中客卿》是中央电视台大型系列纪录片《到中国去》的一节，主要讲述了一个连续五十年掌管大清海关的英国人-罗伯特·赫德的风云往事。 一个连续五十年掌管大清海关的英国人，一段见证并干预近代中国的风云往事——罗伯特·赫德，这位来自北爱尔兰小镇上的年轻人，如何成功嫁接中西方文化，如何主宰中国海关，如何权衡各国利益在华利益，如何在中英之间把握分寸，又如何在中国官场游刃有余，成为举足轻重的“中国第一客卿”。 赫德建立的高效的海关管理体制，被历届的民国政府全盘继承，一直运行到1949年。大型系列纪录片《到中国去》之《风中客卿》为您精彩讲述罗伯特·赫德的风云人生。 第一集 1854年春天，罗伯特·赫德来到中国，进入宁波领事馆工作。1859年，赫德被任命为粤海关副税务司。不久，赫德很快得到了恭亲王奕䜣的赏识，他的政治命运开始发生空前转变。阿斯本事件后，赫德正式出任中国海关总税务司的任命。这标志着赫德作为一个主要角色登上了中国的舞台。（片长51:36） 第二集 1868年，在赫德的争取下，海关奉命开办同文馆。同文馆在海关编制之内，长达30余年，为中国培养了第一批西文翻译和中外思想文化交流人才。1908年4月13日，赫德在中国度过了最后一天。1911年9月20日，在离开中国三年半后，罗伯特·赫德在马洛去世，遥远的东方帝国追赠他为太子太保。（片长51:35）。
