Sounds like a horror movie doesn't it? But no, it's the latest British produced period drama, only this time sans Keira Knightley. Based on Evelyn Waugh's classic novel, it's the memoirs of Charles Ryder and his tale of love and innocence lost through dealings with the aristocratic family who own the Brideshead estate. Set between the two world wars, it's designed as an epic romance and lives up to half of that description while being less successful with the other.
