Romance in Regency England
The movie is fluffy and silly where no one is in real danger. Whenever, the main character, Lady Caroline(Allison Doody), is in danger she gets saved by one of the characters.
However. I have seen this type of story before in Jane Eyre and Rebecca.
The Lord Brecon(Benedict Taylor) lives in a house of secrets which turns out he has an insane sister hidden in the a secret room just like Jane Eyre. (As I watching this, I thought it was a Jane Eyre rip off).
The mean chambermaid, Mrs. Miller remined me of Mrs. Danvers from Rebecca.
It's has a strong cast and with a stand performance by Michael York, as the wicked cousin, Gervaise. The best scene is when the cousin schemes with Mrs. Miller (Geraldine Chaplin)
If you are looking for a pleasant movie with a happy ending than this movie is for you.
