Brideshead Revisited (1981)
A most delicious production...
10 June 2003 - 8 out of 10 users found this review helpful.
Beautiful and lush, Brideshead Revisited is a most delicious adaptation of Waugh's poignant masterpiece. Jeremy Irons and Anthony Andrews are exquisite as the reflective Charles Ryder and the self-destructive Sebastian Flyte, and the all star cast flame with colour and exuberance. The drama unwinds with ease and luxury, unfurling on your screens in moments sumptuous scenery and evocative dialogue. The intimate narration intermingles Waugh's luscious descriptions and lavish set scenes. Visually stunning and achingly sad, this drama will haunt you for many days. It is certainly one of the most ambitious and well crafted television dramas that has been for years and will continue to be so for many more.
