The spirit of early 20s, beautiful costumes, intriguing plot, wonderful actors with excellent British accent and sophisticated humor... yes! That's Downton Abbey! :)
If not Julian Fellowes, we wouldn't have pleasure to get along with new adventure, what's more, we can learn something about history, social relations and generally how people lived in those time.
Not only can we admire breath-taking landscapes of England; plenty of grassy meadows with sheep, castles... we can just feel the taste of early 20s. The movie easily brings us into times of dukes, duchesses, counts, upper class (upstairs) and also third class (downstairs).
The characters are so realistic as if we start to think that once there were such people who live over there. What's more, the plot is amazingly intriguing, plenty of adventures, fulfilled with tears, happiness, betrayals, loves, deceptions, riddles. There are some moments which make you cry, but also, sometimes you can burst into laugh: some characters make great jokes, they are very amusing, so you're not gonna be boring.

ReplyDeleteWell, you've been trying hard, but your have not convinced me. I watched two randomly chosen episodes and I find this series snobbish and booooring. But then again it's only my opinion. BTW: do you watch in English? :-D
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you have tried to watch at least two episodes. Maybe one day you'll change your mind and go back to this tv series. Anyway, I watch it in English (British accent! ^^ ) with english subtitles, so that I can learn the language and also admire the accent :)
