This mini series about the life of 19th Century great portuguese author and diplomat, Almeida Garrett, could be better. It is too theatrical for television.
Anyway I think there were very good things about it: the actor who plays Garrett is good, the wardrobe, make-up and set designs were very good, the scenes on location show us beautiful places, the photography is excellent.
Really the only thing bad about it is the way the director handled the script and how he told the actors to play it. It could be a lot better, but still I liked it and watched all the episodes.
