Downton Abbey: A New Era

It’s a big family. An ensemble cast. There’s lots of conflict, but they stick together. Fancy cars are involved. Many of the people are aging. It’s basically Fast and the Furious with tea instead of Red Bull. I don’t really follow the series so I’m not sure why it’s a big deal if Lady Featherbottom clashes with Lord Devonshire. An unfortunate requirement of this is knowing all the backstory (see also: Fast and the Furious). But, man! The cast is top-notch. The crew is varsity elite. The costumes, the hair, the sets, the props, the drone shots. The music. Everything is perfect. Those British made the hell out of this movie, even if I had little idea of what was going on.
