This film has no feel of either period or people other than a vague notion that the upper crust lived with gorgeous stuff in gorgeous houses. The characters are unsexy and miscast - Thompson is a woefully unaristocratic Lady Marchmain. A disappointment.

Synopsis
"Brideshead Revisited" tells an evocative story of forbidden love and the loss of innocence set in the pre-WWII era. In the film, Charles Ryder becomes entranced with the noble Marchmain family, first through the charming and provocative Sebastian Flyte, and then his sophisticated sister, Julia. The rise and fall of Charles' infatuations reflect the decline of a decadent era in England between the wars.
