Review of Downton Abbey (2019) by Joelgreenberg — 06 Oct 2019
The question, "What were they thinking?" can be answered easily: "They weren't". This is a waste of time, talent and viewers' time. Julian Fellowes, writer of this, the tv series from which this comes, and "Gosford Park", another, and far superior, insight into class, power and an anachronistic society long past its sell-by date.
This film plods when it doesn't evaporate before your eyes.
The characters' preoccupations help to clarify why this world vanished.
