    • Trivia
      The camera is always moving (if only slightly) in every shot as requested by producer and director Robert Altman.
    • Goofs
      The movie takes place in 1932 but some of the songs Ivor Novello sings for the guests didn't come out until years after, like "Glamorous Night" (1935), "Why It Wasn't You" (1937), "I Can Give You a Starlight" (1939) and "Waltz of My Heart" (1939).
    • Quotes

      [Morris Weissman is asked about his upcoming movie project]

      Lady Sylvia McCordle: Mr Weissman.

      Morris Weissman: Yes?

      Lady Sylvia McCordle: Tell us about the film you're going to make.

      Morris Weissman: Oh, sure. It's called "Charlie Chan In London". It's a detective story.

      Mabel Nesbitt: Set in London?

      Morris Weissman: Well, not really. Most of it takes place at a shooting party in a country house. Sort of like this one, actually. Murder in the middle of the night, a lot of guests for the weekend, everyone's a suspect. You know, that sort of thing.

      Constance: How horrid. And who turns out to have done it?

      Morris Weissman: Oh, I couldn't tell you that. It would spoil it for you.

      Constance: Oh, but none of us will see it.

    Didn't quite do it for me
    Sometimes when i see a movie i walk out of the theater with a strange sensation. Not exactly knowing what it was i just watched. It was not great, nor was it bad. And soon, within fifteen minutes of my departure from my seat, do i begin having trouble retelling the story of the movie or even saying what it was about. Gosford Park is one of those movies.

    Robert Altman certainly shows that he is a very competent film-maker here. Both technically complete as well as narratively interesting this movie is filled with directorial skills. It certainly doesn't lack the actors either, this film is very well acted throughout. Which is not really surprising considering the credits, a long line of fine actors. The story is nothing revolutionary, but quite interestingly told. It's given from two perspectives, first the noble people and then their servants. A relationship that is also causing quite a lot of comedy.

    So with all that i have recounted above this should be a great movie. Well, i would have to say both yes and no. While i found it to have many qualities there is just something about the whole thing that failed to excite me. Sometimes when i watch a movie i get the feeling that the director has almost worked too hard trying to perfect his style. I get that feeling here. The movie is almost too much, like someone somewhere is trying too hard. Or maybe it's just me. For whatever reasons this polished and well thought-through movie just didn't quite do it for me, even though it was certainly decent entertainment for as long as it lasted. I rate it 6/10.
