Movie Reviews of Fortunes of War
Movie Review: Great movie magic
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm watching this for the 2nd time and just savoring it, watching one or two episodes a night. It's great storytelling, acting, directing, cinematography, etc. Subtle but powerful. I must remember to recommend it to others like my sister who enjoys the same types of films I do instead of selfishly keeping it to myself. But at least I'm sharing my opinion with you, aren't I? ;-)
Movie Review: Brilliant British World War II Epic Mini-Series
Summary: 5 Stars
The very young Kenneth Branagh and Emma Thompson, struggling on many levels across wartorn Europe and Cairo.Incredible cast of unforgettable characters, taut story line throughout about a young married couple escaping the enemy but not themselves. The acting couple were married at the time of the filming. This series represents the best of Masterpiece Theater.Movie Review: A Fantastic Production!
Summary: 5 Stars
I absolutely adore "Fortunes of War". The story is terrific from start to finish, and the characters are all memorable. It's filled with movie lines to be quoted, which my family does on a regular basis. It's the kind of movie that you can start watching at any point. Any segment is excellent. I recommend this movie to friends all the time.Movie Review: Brilliantly written
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the early pieces with Kenneth Branagh and Emma Thompson. Amazing cast of interesting characters moving through Europe, Egypt and Eastern Europe just ahead of the Axis invasions becoming World War II. I saw bits and pieces on Masterpiece Theatre many years ago - very memorable.Movie Review: a classic!
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved Olivia Manning's novels and this mini-series is one of the best adaptations of a beloved literary work I have ever seen. Ronald Pickup's performance as Yakimov is just perfect! The video stands on its own but it is especially satisfying for those who have read the novels.
