The Way We Live Now (2001) short review

Kendra April 30, 2001
The Way We Live Now (2001)

This is a great BBC miniseries written by Andrew Davies (Pride and Prejudice) based on Anthony Trollope’s satirical novel. Because many of the characters are negative (satirical, remember?) it’s hard to LOVE them, but this is still a great story with great acting and — more importantly — BEAUTIFUL early 1870s costuming. I love the dresses worn by supporting character Georgianna Longestaffe (Anne-Marie Duff).
