 Badly in need of subtitles October 4, 2008
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
MARVELOUS STORY AND BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPHY BUT LACKING SUBTITLES. HAD DIFFICULTY UNDERSTANDING SOME OF FLAT ENGLISH ACCENT DIALOGUE, ESPECIALLY JEREMY IRONS WHO SPEAKS IN A VERY LOW REGISTER. TURNING UP THE VOLUME DID NOT HELP AS DIALOGUE WAS COMPETING WITH BACKGROUND MUSIC. DO NOT HAVE HEARING PROBLEMS BUT THIS STORY WAS A CHALLENGE TO FOLLOW AT TIMES.

A wonderful production. The casting and the story line far superior to the current movie by the same name. It is woth getting to understand the real tale being told.

This movie gives me goose bumps every time I watch it. It is tragic and exciting. I love it!
Back When TV Was (Occasionally) Great September 4, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I saw Brideshead Revisited for the first time over 25 years ago on PBS. For a boy my age it proved strangely compelling and revealed a world to me I had never seen and never will. Then, a decade later, I was old enough to appreciate the book itself which I have read twice over the years. I can honestly say that the TV adaptation is faithful to the book. Unfortunately, I have not seen the film yet but hear it is a serious disappointment. This 1980s British take on Waugh was devoid of political machination and that's why it has aged so well. Regardless, the mini-series is timeless and I rented all four CDs last week. It's easy to see why this production launched the magnificent career of Jeremy Irons. He's always been one of my favorite actors and I thought Anthony Andrews was a joy as well.
A Beautiful masterpiece September 4, 2008

I would have to give each episode 5 stars. This is a beautiful masterpiece. The acting is superb especially by Andrews and Irons. The production is one of a kind. I enjoyed this miniseries from start to finish. Granted there are parts that drag but it is still magnificent to look at. I am now going to read the book and hopefully the 2008 version will come to my town so I can see it.
