Despite strong performances by Edward Norton, Toby Jones, and Diana Rigg, this is Naomi Watts’ movie all the way. Her transformation from a spoiled, sheltered young woman into someone with a broader view of both her marriage and the world around her enlivens what could have easily been another dusty adaptation of W. Somerset Maugham’s work.
