Summary: Entertaining!
Comment: There are three DVD's in this package and I wished that the story would have never ended. I would have loved to have had more to watch! (The one DVD is of the making of the series.) The directors and screen writers did an excellant job with this movie. It was made for TV, so there are breaks in the movie but this can be useful if you want to watch it over several days. Enjoy it.

Summary: Perfection!
Comment: I checked this movie out from the library, but I plan to buy it when possible. The movie is clean, wholesome and sweet, sweet, sweet! Perfect for anyone (especially girls) aged twelve and up, mainly because of interest level. The scenery is gorgeous and most of the characters are quite loveable(even the "bad guys.") Not too heavy on the drama, it's a fairly light movie that is overall pretty uplifting. There are a few serious or sad parts that fit into the storyline, but they don't dominate the tone. One of my favorite movies now. Perfect for moms and their teenage daughters.

Summary: Meticulous!!!!
Comment: My review will be short but sweet ----This was an absolutely perfect show. From the village to the gorgeous manor houses, from the scenery to the writing, from the casting to the story.....it was just perfect. The BBC and Andrew Davies have done it again. I would not be hard-pressed to say that I liked this better than "Pride and Prejudice".
And do not skip the DVD extras.....fascinating look at how the series was made and a long section about the author.

Summary: Wives and Daughters
Comment: I saw and read the Elizabeth Gaskell's book North and South and decided to give this DVD a try as well but prior to ordering, I went to imdb.com to see the story line and what others thought of the series.
The story is about a widower and his daughter, Molly. The widower decides that he should remarry to provide his daughter with female companionship. He marries a lady who also has a daughter, Cynthia, about the same age. Molly soon goes to visit with a squire's family who has 2 sons, Osborn and Roger. The film is about the relationship of these 4 characters.
Probably will see if I can get the book to fill in the details for the film.

Summary: Wives and Daughters
Comment: A drama involving a community of folks that create lives that enthrall the watcher with emotion and carries you to the end. The costumes are lovely and consistent with the period. A good film to own.

From the team that brought you "Pride and Prejudice." Set in a richly portrayed society well-stocked with eccentric nobles and gossipy villagers the story centers around 17-year-old Molly Gibson the only daughter of a respected country Doctor.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:Â DRAMA UPC:Â 794051267627 Manufacturer No:Â E2676
