Reviews from Amazon
Great from start to finish! -  - I missed the first episode when this aired on PBS, but when I came in on the second episode, I knew I would be purchasing the dvd. I have never read the book(s) this series is based on, so I didn't have any expectations, but the stories and the people in the village of Cranford charmed me immediately. The cast is incredible, the plots are engaging, and the conclusion ties everything neatly together. I really enjoyed how the workings of the entire community, from landed gentry to the working class, were explored, revealing interesting details of 19th century life.
Masterpiece! - - Cranford is fantastic, hilarious, and sentimental. Five hours sounds long but I swear it flies by; there are some scenes that will stay with me for the rest of my life. If you have a heart you will like Cranford.
The little town of Cranford - - I watched this film in its entirety. I was too captivated, I could not break it up into partial views.
Wonderful acting, wonderful story, and chracters. This one goes on my top list of BBC films along with Pride and Prejudice w/Colin Firth.
***** 5
As Good As It Gets - - Cranford is one of the best films I've ever seen. I tend to be a quite critical movie viewer and I find this one to be near perfect. An extremely worthy addition to any collection.
Cranford- a Delight! - - Our family thoroughly enjoyed "Cranford". While it is different than the book, it is "good" different in that the characters are much more developed (the sisters, the Brown family, etc.) The music and photography are lovely. "Cranford" is just delightful!
