Rating: 5.0
A GREAT ADAPTATION
EVELYN WAUGH'S WROTE A GREAT NOVEL ABOUT A WAY OF LIFE THAT IS NO MORE,AND THIS TV SERIES IS ONE OF THE BEST ADAPTATIONS TO FILM OF A REALLY GRAT BOOK.I THINK THE ACTING WAS GREAT AND THE HISTORICAL ACCURACY SUPERB. AND OF COURSE ONE MUST NOT FORGET TO MENTION CASTLE HOWARD WHO WAS IN MY OPINION ONE OF THE STAR PLAYERS IN THIS FILM.TO GETHER WITH THE "JEWEL IN THE CROWN" THIS IS ONE OF THE MAJOR FILM CLASSICS OF OUR TIME.IT IS A PITY THAT DESPITE THE FACT THAT BOTH WERE PRODUCED SOME TWENTY YEARS AGO NOTHING COMPARABLE HAS BEEN PRODUCED SINCE THEN. I HOPE THEY ARE NOT THE LAST OF THEIR KIND.WITHOUT DOUBT A GREAT PIECE OF FILM MAKING.
