JohnRuskin是英国维多利亚时代的艺术家、诗人、建筑师、思想家,还扶持培养了一批年轻艺术家,不过成为社会新闻的却是他与EffieGray的婚姻,两人结婚6年之后Effie要求中止婚姻,理由是两人“从未真正成为夫妻”,这桩官司成为一时谈资。JohnRuskin承认两人从没上过床,但为自己辩护说妻子的“某种状况”破坏了他的激情。EffieGray离婚后,嫁给了受JohnRuskin重视提拔的画家JohnEverettMillais。据艾玛·汤普森说,这部新片将从两人的新婚之夜开始,通过JohnRuskin的经历和性格来解开这个谜团。 2011.08.17.达科塔取代西尔莎成为《Effie》女主角.
