Wonderful!

I absolutely love Jane Austen's books. I enjoy reading books in this period and really enjoy watching the movies after I am finished with the book. I have another version of Mansfield Park which was okay, but the story line was not as it was in the book and was disappointing. This versioin was...

Fabulous for the Purist!!

Excellent adaptation. I dislike, very much, when a teleplay strays from the story you already know and love. It disturbs me greatly when a story is so rushed. This story is not so rushed and allows the imagination to play along. I am so happy that I heeded to the 5 star reviews instead of the 1...

Review of Mansfield Park

I cannot say enough about the artistic excellence of this DVD! I love Jane Austen anyhow, but this BBC production was simply outstanding. I love Sylvestra Le Touzel! She is so exquisitely refreshing and played her part so well. I cannot understand why she has not appeared in other films. What a...

Horrendous in every way

If you are thinking of watching this film, go drop something very heavy on your foot. The experience with distract you more and pain you less. All about this mini-series is awful. Acting, costumes, wigs, casting, cinematography, portrayal of the characters - all were worse than I have ever seen...

Mansfield Park

A true BBC drama, filled with love, mystery and wonder. A delight to watch all the characters interact and find their way. Not a disappointment.

Ok, just ok...

I loved the book, just liked this movie. True to the book, but the movie was long and poorly made. For fans of the book only. If you have not read the book you will not like this movie. The film making is not the best in the world but is does the job of telling the story. I think that...

Surprisingly good!

I bought the set of Jane Austen movies produced by the BBC. So far, I have watched "Mansfield Park", "Sense and Sensibility" and "Emma". Of those, both "Mansfield Park" and "Sense and Sensibility" are excellent though the former is much truer to the book. In the later, the youngest sister is...

Best Adaptation

This is the best adaptation of Mansfield Park. If you were disappointed with the recent PBS offering, get this DVD. It is excellent, sticks closely to the novel and is witty and moral, just like Jane.

Too faithful?

This version of "Mansfield Park" excites (and I think correctly) the uncommon complaint that it is all too faithful to the original novel. Although beautifully cast (with one exception) and acted, the production fails to catch fire--perhaps because too few "liberties" were taken in terms of...
