Mansfield Park (1999)
English country estates do get a reputation, don't they? From Brideshead to Manderley and Wuthering Heights to Satis House, it seems that not much good ever happens when you go away to the old family manor for a visit. Mansfield Park's secrets are not nearly as dark as Manderley's or Wuthering Heights', but it's not all fun and games even if it does all revolve around love. The movie itself is pretty - bright and colorful - but it doesn't really take enough time to get deep into the characters.
My Netflix rating: 4 stars
