Audience Member A heart warming and endearing film with strong characters and beautiful settings. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review bill k If you liked Downton Abbey or any of its "ilk" you will love this one. Well-acted and interestingly written. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/17/12 Full Review Audience Member The production is pretty good but the story is somewhat hard to identify with. Whether it the crazy-jealous husband, the obviously strange insistence of Osborn to behave in the way that he did, the whole affair with the French sisters. I have to say I saw this as the PBS edition, which cuts it to a 3-hour-story so I might have missed things which would have made it better Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I rather enjoyed this nice drama, BUT I wanted so much to reach into my screen and slap that husband. Holy cow was he ever a total idiot. Obviously, he had some kind of mental illness that was causing him to act that way, and which finally did him in. Watching him just made me madder and madder. The movie was so nicely done, though, and the rest of the people were able to have happy endings. So...made up for it I guess. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member This story was described as having a "juicy scandal" in it, which proves to be true. Yet, you're never entirely convinced as to who is "right". Did she or didn't she? The title alone made me want to see this. If you're a fan of period pieces and BBC dramas, you'll like this. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked this. As stated, a bit disturbing to see him totally lose it, but otherwise, e.g. vicar Gibson's story is really amusing. Chrisitna Cole is so beautiful and Nighy is great as always. Cosy and Nice! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
