I have a lot of favorite movies but this one may be one of the most recently done movies on my list. Each line and scene in this movie is part of an overall picture. If you blink, talk, look away you will miss a piece of a magnificent puzzle.
This cast may be one of the most collectively talented casts you could put together. Each member seems to blend in so well that you don't even realize they are acting. I have watched the movie several times and the commentary and I still have a hard time thinking of the characters as anything but who they are in the movie.
The set, the lighting, the little bits all add up to an amazing piece of work that should be watched when quiet and in a time when you can really take in the whole story. It is a time that has gone by, a life that has faded, a lifestyle no longer being lived and yet this snapshot makes it feel so very close.
The mystery is is not only interesting, but heartfelt. Without giving away plot points, my favorite scene is towards the end between two actresses who are legends and who both prefer the scene with realism and caring without being over the top.
A must see if you have ever watched and enjoyed "Downton Abbey", take time to see this masterpiece.
