Downton Abbey: a new era, \u00a0started as a mini-series and went up to six seasons. Consequently, they made two movies, A New Era being one of those. The movie is set in 1928, a year after the previous film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Downton Abbey<\/strong> is a British period drama television series<\/strong> created by Julian Fellowes<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The series,<\/strong> set in the fictional Yorkshire country estate of Downton Abbey<\/strong> between 1912 and 1926, depicts the lives of the aristocratic Crawley family and their servants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The series first aired on ITV in the United Kingdom on 26 September 2010 and in the United States on PBS on 9 January 2011, as part of Masterpiece Classic. It became the most-watched television series in the world by 2012. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2017, it was ranked as the second-most watched show on British television, behind only Doctor Who. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Downton Abbey <\/strong>has been acclaimed by viewers and critics alike and has won numerous awards, including a Golden Globe Award for Best Miniseries or Television Film and a Primetime Emmy Award <\/strong>for Outstanding Miniseries<\/strong> or Movie. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The series <\/strong>has also spawned several books and other media adaptations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Downton Abbey: A New Era <\/strong>is a highly anticipated film that picks up where the popular television series left off. The film follows the story of the Crawley family <\/strong>and their servants navigating life’s challenges in the early 20th century. <\/p>\n\n\n\n While the television series was set in the years leading up to World War I, the film is set in the 1930s, a time of significant change and upheaval. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In 1928, Tom Branson, the Earl of Grantham’s widowed son-in-law, married Lucy Smith, the illegitimate daughter of and sole heir to Lady Maud Bagshaw. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess of Grantham, astonishes the family by revealing that long ago, she was gifted a villa in the South of France<\/a> by the Marquis de Montmirail, who has recently passed away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n She is leaving it to her great-granddaughter, Sybbie, Tom’s daughter with the late Lady Sybil Crawley, to ensure that she has a more equal social and financial standing to her cousins. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A film production company wants to use Downton to shoot a silent film called “The Gambler.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Robert declines until his eldest daughter and estate manager, Lady Mary Talbot, convinces him that the fee would be enough to replace Downton’s leaking roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The household staff are eager to see the film stars, but lead actress, Myrna Dalgliesh’s haughtiness, offends them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n That’s the setting of the story. I won\u2019t spoil it, but as always, the show has social commentary on the time changes and modernity. Think of Sunset Boulevard<\/a> or Singing in the Rain <\/a>conflicts added to Downton Abbey. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I love period dramas; I fell in love with them watching James Ivory\u2019s The Remains of the Day<\/em><\/a>, starring Anthony Hopkins<\/a> and Emma Thompson<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I remember watching the movie and being completely obsessed with British ways, customs and the monarchy to this day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The associations with a bygone era are so intoxicating and provide a welcome escape from the mundane reality of life. It is a kind of storytelling where nothing happens, but everything happens, something like Chekojv\u2019s Uncle Vanya or The Cherry Tree. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The association may happen because all the problems that every character faces are inside their emotions, and they don’t express them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We fall in love with all the characters from upstairs and downstairs; we have cared about them almost for ten years. It is like we were living life with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There have been marriages, betrayals, newborns and deaths. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019ve never watched the series, you will understand the plot but may not connect with the characters, so I recommend watching the series before watching the movies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are a fan of the film and missed it in the theatres, now is the time for you to catch up with it; you’ll be excited to know that this movie is now available to stream rent based on AppleTV<\/strong> <\/strong>in Canada and Peacock <\/strong>in the USA. <\/p>\n\n\n\n While much has changed since we last saw them\u2014including Lord Crawling’s weight loss and orangy tan\u2014some things remain the same: Lady Mary’s knack for getting herself into being the head of the family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So sit back, relax, and enjoy your trip back to Downton Abbey and the South of France while they are literally making a movie in Dowton Abbey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Check out the post about the Netflix movie The good Nurse<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
