Well, where should I start? It's really a sad story. Story about love, convenances and sacrifices. Where romances are kept behind closed doors. And honor is most important issue.
Two pairs of married couples and the girl. Soldier, who love his wife, but keep falling in love with another womens. His wife, who is trying to pretend that she doesn't care about infidelity of her husband. American Quaker, who is unconscious that his wife is unfaithful. His wife, who's pretending to have health problems.
And Nancy. Innocent girl, who turn the life of good soldier, Edward.
I must say, I like this adaptation. That typical for Granada attention for details in every aspect. Cloths, furniture, trains or everyday items.
That makes us feel like part of the story. We could sympathise with those people and their feelings.
And for me it's worth watching. Especially for Jeremy Brett.
