Plot
Summary: Young Judith Dunbar (Keira Knightley)
is a quiet, gentle voiced teenager in the 1930s, relegated
to a life at boarding school thanks to her colonial
parents. Judith becomes adopted into the family of
her best friend, young Loveday Carey Lewis (Poppy
Gaye), after the death of her aunt and guardian, Louise
Forrester (Penelope Keith). Judith falls in love with
the family, their home, Nancherrow, and Loveday's
older brother Edward (Paul Bettany). When war strikes,
Judith (Emily Mortimer) and the Carey-Lewis family
all suffer, as Judith loses her family, and Loveday
(Katie Ryder Richardson) her fiance; Gus. Judith muddles
through the war losing Edward and aunt Lavinia in
the process. But the war draws to a close, and Judith
finds new romance, and Loveday suffers the consequences
of a very hard decision, as she is forced to choose
between Gus whom she loves, and her husband, Walter,
the father of her young boy Nathaniel.
Comments:
Love...Exciting
and new...Come aboard...it's World War 2... A 4-hour
romance novel set in Britain before during and after
WWII. The heroine falls into a fortune near the beginning
and nothing much worse happens to her after that.
I hoped for a couple more plot twists, but even so,
it has its charms, and I looked forward to finishing
all 4 episodes. Good acting. Fair-Poor direction.
Horrible soundtrack reminiscent of an oatmeal commercial.
American viewers will be surprised (well, I was) by
the partial female nudity that pops up every hour
or so just as interest starts to flag.
