I don't know what it is, the directing, the acting, the writing.all of it.just comes across so realistically. As always, these phenomenal Brits put Hollywood to shame. The acting here is stunningly superb!!! As in most British shows, the actors inhabit their roles so strikingly that it's hard to imagine them only as actors. And if the narrator had not planted that silly comparison, I doubt that anybody would even bring it up!
For me, it's just as compelling as Tolstoy's tearjerking account of life, only with a modern twist and with some laugh-out-loud moments, truly mimicking reality.as life is not all serious and maudlin.hopefully, anyway!ĭon't get me wrong, I Loved Anna Karenina, but I don't like the outright dismissal of Reckless, just b/c it's written in the 20th century. All in all, the vicissitudes of life.Īnd, just like real life, it's got a lot of funny bits as well. I think it's an extraordinary tale of the human condition: of love, lust, jealousy, class warfare, age discrepancy, adultery, baby-out-of-wedlock, and divorce. Reckless has all the drama of A.K., only with a lot more humor, grace, and sensitivity. However, I think it's a harsh and unfair criticism. Some reviews have mentioned that it might not be up to par with Anna Karenina, simply b/c the narrator derides Paul Abbott's writing and warns viewers not to expect the likes of the classic. I fell madly in love, naturally! Francesca Annis, I've loved since Lillie Langtry. It was my first introduction to the gorgeous Robson Green. It's THE BEST thing Ever put on TV, or, anywhere else!! I could not get it out of my head I absolutely adored everything about it. It has stayed with me for 20yrs, I loved it so much. I saw RECKLESS when it first aired on PBS.
