This is a great film! It has good period costumes, the charters and acting are convincing, the set is simple and the scenes flow from one to the other. I found myself feeling vary involved in the film.
I am usually disappointed by films set in the past and feel that this is the perfect example of what I like in a period film with the hard accents and the attention to detail of the clothing and furniture.
The Acting was excellent by the actors of all the main characters and it is a great story of life of London's past.
I will find it interesting to see the Johnny Dept version of this film. I am expecting Hollywood to make a mess of it.
It was also fun because it was grim but not gruesome so my wife could watch the whole film.
This is a classic style horror film with a lot to it.
