A new era of revisionism

 

Downton Abbey: A New Era (2022)


Directed by Simon Curtis this film based on the television show of the same name stars Hugh Bonneville and Michelle Dockery. A film is made at Downton Abbey while most of the family travel to the south of France.


I found this film to be too gentle, it lacks conflict and any critical eye of the class system. The whole thing is pleasant fantasy for those who do not wish to engage their brains. One for fans of the show, not the general viewer.


2/5
