I have just watched the very first episode of The Onedin Line, a 1971 BBC production and although I am perfectly ready to admit that I am long overdue, I cannot help but feeling a new obsession coming up.

Plot: James Onedin is a poor young skipper in Liverpool who dreams of starting his own shipping business and breaking free from his powerful boss. In order to acquire his first ship, चालट, चार्लोट, शेर्लोट Rhodes, he marries Anne the daughter of the ship owner and the adventure begins…

"POLDARK" SERIES ONE (2015): EPISODES FIVE TO EIGHT

Within the past year, I had developed a major interest in लेखक Winston Graham's 1945-2002 "POLDARK" literary saga and the two टेलीविज़न adaptations of it. Series One of the सेकंड adaptation produced द्वारा Debbie Horsfield, premiered on the BBC (in Great Britain) and PBS (in the United States) last year. Consisting of eight episodes, Series One of "POLDARK" was an adaptation of 1945's "Ross Poldark - A Novel of Cornwall, 1783-1787" and "Demelza - A Novel of Cornwall, 1788-1790".
Whereas Episodes One to Four adapted the 1945 novel, Episodes...

"PERSUASION" (1971) Review

This adaptation of Jane Austen’s 1818 novel turned out to be the first of the old Jane Austen टेलीविज़न adaptations that the BBC aired during the 1970s and 80s. Produced and directed द्वारा Howard Baker, and adapted द्वारा Julian Mitchell; this two-part miniseries starred Ann Firbanks and Bryan Marshall.

As many प्रशंसकों of Austen’s novel would know, "PERSUASION" told the story of Anne Elliot, the middle daughter of a vain and spendthrift baronet, who finds herself reunited with her former finance, a Naval officer of lesser birth named Frederick Wentworth. Eight years before...

"BLANCHE FURY" (1948) Review

I suspect that many प्रशंसकों of costume dramas would be fascinated to know about the series of period dramas released द्वारा the British film industry during the post-World War II era. A good number of those films were released द्वारा a British film studio known as Gainsborough Pictures. But not all of them were released through this particular studio. Some were released through other studios या production companies . . . like the 1948 period drama, "BLANCHE FURY".

Based upon the 1939 novel written द्वारा Marjorie Bowen (under the pseudonym of Joseph Stearling), "BLANCHE FURY" told...

"THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO" (1934) Review

I have seen only two versions of Alexandre Dumas père's 1845 novel, "The Count of Monte Cristo" in my past - the 1975 टेलीविज़न version with Richard Chamberlain and the 2002 डिज़्नी film with James Cavielzel. While पढ़ना a good number of लेखाए about the movie versions of the novel, I came across numerous praises for the 1934 adaptation that starred Robert Donat. And since I happened to like Dumas' story so much, I decided to see how much I would like this older version.

Set between the last months of the Napoleonic Wars and the 1830s, "THE COUNT...
