About

You may enjoy this if you like thoughtful period dramas and character-focused journeys such as Daniel Deronda or Small Island; Not for you if you want fast pacing, clear heroes, or lots of naval action.

Pros: absorbing character growth; rich period atmosphere; strong performances | Cons: slow middle stretch; uneven tone; few action thrills
