Review title: Disappointing , depressing and disjointed
Product review: I wish I could write a more positive review but I really feel only 2 1/2 stars is the best I can do. The plot of South Riding would do Thomas Hardy proud except that he would have filled in the spaces. There were so many possibilities here that were not explored adequately or at all and were brought to a hurried and jumbled end, and of course the overall tenor was grim. I did like the actors--especially Anna Maxwell-Martin.. All the central characters were well acted-- David Morrissey and Penelope Wilton were both memorable but were constricted by the script. I would very much like to see more of Maxwell-Martin because she is new to me. The scenery was, as many have noted, stunning, and it certainly got across the dismal quality of life in that era. However, there were just too many dangling story lines and too many things happening without adequate leadin or explanation, and it really was sooo depressing.
