Adapted from Virginia Woolf’s novel of the same name, Potter’s version of Orlando is a visually rich tale that revolves around gender and class. ... As both author and auteur are feminists in their own respect, Orlando definitely deals with the theme of feminism, and Potter’s is a feminist counter film, from a class perspective and is told in 4 chapters: death, poetry, politics and society. ... Potter’s Orlando however looks at both sides of the coin, without excluding each gender flaws and this promotes a sense of egalitarianism when portraying both genders.
Orlando is played by Tilda Swinton, who plays a remarkable performance as both male and female or as a masculine and feminine character.
