10/10
One of the Best British Mini Series
31 January 2010
My wife and I have watched nearly every British mini series of the last 15 years or so and just saw this gem. It has everything you want: acting, photography, scenery and above all an excellent script. Set in Ireland before WWII and after, it shows us a part of Ireland that we had never seen before. I will not spoil the ending but will say the ending was very appropriate and extremely well earned by the characters. All of the actors were believable and there were very many. Colin Farrell appears early in his career and does a great job as a love struck youth. Elisabeth Dermot-Walsh was outstanding in a very difficult role and again this is one of her earliest performances. My wife and I give this one our highest rating!!!
