Since its debut at the Cannes Film Festival, the picture has hit Telluride and the New York Film Festival where it has continued to earn acclaim, and last night, it made its latest stop at the BFI London Film Festival, where the accolades kept rolling in.

Rooney Mara and Cate Blanchett (both contenders to be nominated for an Oscar) lead Todd Haynes' latest, based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith, about the passion that smolders between a married woman and a department store clerk.
