Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Commentary by Julian Fellowes is most enjoyable!
I'm glad this DVD belongs to me for I will watch it many times. The music is lovely and Jeremy Northam and Clive Owen are easy on the eyes.
Julian Fellowes has an excellent commentary explaining the aristocracy and the servant class which made the story-line all the more understandable and therefore more enjoyable. Thank you, Julian Fellowes!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Poisonous Paradise

Watch facial expressions and "thrown away" remarks, that are really vital ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic Movie
I love this movie. I can honestly say it is one of my favorites. Robert Altman made it for intelligent, patient viewers who enjoy character development. It is a murder mystery and a study of English class distinctions. One of the most enjoyable things about it is how un-intrusive the camera is. It simply floats about from room to room catching snatches of conversation and revealing bits of character without one feeling its presence. The overall effect is so natural one almost feels one is looking in the ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Work of a Master
As has been stated by so many reviewers before me, "Gosford Park" is a wonderfully written, acted, produced, and most importantly directed piece of cinema history. It comprises a truly stellar cast all delivering solid performances in astonishing surroundings. Especially is the effulgence of the great Maggie Smith hard to ignore.

Other reviewers have described the plot in fine detail, so I shant bother you with that. I'll get straight to the important bits: the directing. Robert Altman was, ... Read More
