Cinemascope: Downton Abbey (Season 4)

Cinemascope is a regular blog post where I will share with you movies and TV shows I think are worth watching.


Released in 2010. Season 4 released in 2013.

Plot line: Beginning in the years leading up to World War I, the drama centers on the Crawley family and their servants.

I loved the the first couple of seasons of Downtown Abbey. Sure it is a soap opera. But with such better costumes, setting and lighting no? Historical fiction at its best I think. Unfortunately, the last couple of seasons have not been up to par. It seems like the writers have no idea where they are going, and well, since the cast is already all dressed up, let's go ahead and film something. That does not sound like a resounding recommendation does it? It is however good in the beginning, and if you have yet to see it, give a try. You might get hooked too.

You can see the trailer here. If you have yet to see it, this is a TV series worth watching.
