The Duchess Premiere, London

Keira Knightley and Ralph Fiennes

The cast of The Duchess was out in force last night to promote the Oscar-tipped film, The Duchess. Keira, pictured here with co-star Ralph Fiennes, said that it was a pleasure to work with the award-winning actor, who plays her husband in the film. "He's such a remarkable actor and I have total admiration for him," she gushed last night. Fiennes plays the Duke of Devonshire, the richest man in England, who marries Giorgiana with the sole purpose of producing a male heir. Following a disasterous marriage, both characters embark on illicit affairs.
