Trivia:
When filming the scenes during the storm on board the ocean liner, the small cabin sets were made to rock from side to side, but this could not be done for the much larger dining room set, so producer Derek Granger stood on a chair behind the camera and waved a stick from side to side to indicate to the cast which way to lurch and sway.

The book and the mini-series always broke my heart. I first read the book and viewed the series as a teenager and it affected me much more then "Catcher in the Rye".
It is probably one of the finest adaptations of a novel put to film. You watch as the reckless innocent fun of youth is slowly taken away and replaced by sad old cynicism.
It captures the feeling of the stolen season of peace between the world wars and the cool observant eye of Waugh who before hand always wrote detached speedy amoral stories. This seemed so...different.
The acting is so on the spot. Carefully restrained and woeful as we watch our favorite characters grow.
