Review of Longitude (2000) by Nick F — 20 Sep 2010
The intriguingly structured story featuring the parallel stories of Harrison and Gould makes for quite an engrossing miniseries. The 18th century segments are very well mounted in terms of production design and location filming.
The film does a fine job of capturing the rigors of the ocean-testing of the various devices. The 20th century segments are of interest primarily because of Jeremy Iron's performance. Gould's story seems like an indulgence but nonetheless is a welcome layer to the story.
Its a worthwhile investment to watch this miniseries.
