I would love to work with Julian in screenwriting. Downtown Abby is what happens when there is great writing and great cast. Thank you to all of you for doing your best.
Downton Abbey has become my new favorite show. Finally a show for grownups to watch. I can't stand all of the "I'm fat" / cooking shows / reality shows / dummy shows on American television. I almost gave up television for good, but Downton Abbey has renewed my faith that good television programming is still possible.
I think Jessica Brown-Findlay is lovely but I wish she would drink some herbal tea. Her voice is rather painful to listen to. I know she's a ballet dancer, so maybe she hasn't had the benefit of voice training, but I worry that she's straining her vocal apparatus.
I attended a lecture Julian Fellowes gave at the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, DC, on Anne Boleyn. I teach the history of Tudor England at a local college, so I was enthralled with the breadth of his knowledge. I actually spent about an hour talking to him after the lecture, and it was a tremendous experience. I remember seeing him on the screen in "Shadowlands" with Anthony Hopkins, and have loved his work ever since!
If Downton Abbey was a feature film it would win 9 Oscars and break box office records. It’s in the class of The Kings Speech. Beautifully filmed, directed, cast, costume design, script, sound, music, best actor and actress.
I really like listening to Julian Fellowes explain his work, the reasons behind it, the fascinating challenges etc...I'd love to atten a lecture held by him on screenwriting.
Wonderful 'Downton Abbey'; the story characters are so interesting, from an Enneagram (Personality Profiling System) 'point of view'. In celebration of 'Downton Abbey' I have made a video. Do check it out :)
Oh dear! Lord Grantham, I do not like you with a beard! The Dowager will have forty fits if she sees you so embellished, I dread to think of her cutting words!
They aired the third episode in Holland yesterday. Everything about this series has so far been amazing, the script, the acting, the story lines, the feel and look of that era, the music, just wonderful. I adore movies about past times, especially enjoy watching the products they used which don't excist anymore.
@HORSEZOX Looks like you've got some major catty issues with thin stars. Even if Jessica was rail-thin, she'd still be beautiful...and even if she wasn't all that intelligent, people would still like her because she's sweet....unlike some people......
@emidore Well some stars are way to thin, so yeah. Im thinish myself but not like actresses today. To me cruves are so much more attractive than bone, so i woudn't agree that she'd be as beautiful as she is now- looking at her in a role model type way. And have you ever heard the quote "beauty without intelligence is a masterpiece painted on a napkin" hmm, maybe you haven't
@emidore Hear, hear! Let's not shame any kind of women, no matter what they look like. There are plenty of fantastic actresses out there today of all sizes and shapes and there's no need to put down one just because we like another. Horrifying how many people "liked" that cruel comment up there.
@pratyeka Thanks. At least there are two of us who believe that there's more importance in the quality of acting than the appearance and intelligence of actresses. I'm also very surprised at how many people gave that comment a thumbs up, but I guess I shouldn't be...there are a lot of people who like to vent about how much or how little this or that celebrity weighs.
I've watched this series, and love the way the characters were "developed." One example is Cora. She's a nice lady, but occasionally shows her venom. Then there's the battle between Mary and Edith. There's Thomas the footman, seemingly "together," but not really. Best of all is the old granny, the Dowager Countess, with her battles with Mrs. Crawley. Of course I haven't forgot the butler, the cooks, and of course the others in this story.
@MariannaNYC09 ... Oh yes indeed Mr Pamuk, the Turkish Ambassador's son.. Yummy indeed.. shame he was only in it for one episode though... Role on Autumn, series 2 is coming to ITV in the UK... YIPPEE :0)x
@MariannaNYC09 ... YES, YES, YES, Downton Abbey is coming back in the AUTUMN (Fall) on ITV, in the UK. And I for one cannot wait, so I will have to content myself with veiwing the DVD set until then...YIPPEE CONGRATULATIONS TOO, to CATHERINE AND WILLIAM on their marriage today, I watched it on telly and was amazed and alittle teary too, if truth be told, but it was WONDERFUL :0)x
This is TOTALLY GREAT NEWS, THANKS!! wonder how it will continue..the first part ended with the war announcement... will it continue during the war? Can't wait anyway.
And yes, The Wedding was beautiful and shame to all those who say bad things about it; finally some happy people on TV after years of bombs, wars, floods, earthquakes, recessions......and so what if it is tax payers' money? I would rather give them to them then to Wall Street - wait...am I straying off topic?
@MariannaNYC09 Hello again... I am hoping that Thomas gets his come-uppance and that Anna and Mr Bates get together, asfter all his Mother liked her... but i have heard a whisper over here that Bates' wife turns up, to cause trouble... Oh oh.... And I wonder who will take Mary on, 'now she is damaged goods'.. will Matthew come back??? Will Edith get her older man?? Will Cybil go to anymore rallys???
Its unbelievable that after finishing writing the script they were only going to have one season, can you imagine if season 1 was it! it would be so open-ended to be unbearable.
0:38 "A television series... you've got 8 hours or something to play with." - What the British call a series we'd call a mini-series.
3:03 "...the question of the entail" ..they used that word in the series. First I'd heard of it . - (poetry follows): Entail: An estate whose succession is limited to certain people rather than passed to all heirs.- A conveyance of land subject to restrictions, namely, that it may only descend to certain specified heirs.
@marmas58ink The show costs a fortune... a million dollars an episode. None of the actors in this series get anything like the salaries actors would in a big american series. Taking into account this is essentially made for an british audience,which is about 60 million..1 million is like spending 5 million an episode for a big american tv show.
Julian Fellowes writer of "Downton Abbey" takes an easy out when warping up his story-- the war begins and that is all!!!! What happens to all the characters? It's up to us to do the work of a good writer. The acting, period customes, and setting were wonderful.
@divagirl408 it seems that every show with an eye on the ratings ,sooner or later, have got at some point a lesbian story line, Jesus every show i can think of, and yes i know their are exceptions, from eastenders and now even coronation street for christ sake! ....now thats what am talking about
Does anyone know what book Julian Fellowes was reading about the American Heiresses who migrated over to England and married into the Aristocracy? This is my favorite period of history and I am very interested to read about that aspect of it. The only one I am really familiar with is Nancy Lancaster (Lady Astor). Please message back if you know, and thanks! Loved GOSFORD PARK and love Julian Fellowes' writing!
@gageiiiiitttt I am more lucky because i can see her almost every day ;-D So nice to work in hotel that they staying since first season. I can say they all are privately very nice people;-) Hard not to like them.
@PtoQ891209 aahhh you are so AMAZINGLY lucky! Even though I am very biased in the Jessica direction they do all seem so lovely in interviews, and i don't think you can make such a wonderful show without that level of both professionalism and personal integrity. mate you lead a blessed life!
cos in civilised society being clean shaven was a sign of good breading and religious devotion - pretty much - they probably just got sick of being clean shaven every singe day no matter what for production! haha
This has whetted my interest more - especially the vision of Fellowes regarding this not being about carriages and crenolins so much as about the beginning of the modern world. I agree - that transition is fascinating - and it happened very fast.
@Kittalia I agree, the 20th century was absolutely incredible when you think about just how much changed- culturally, technologically, socially. How everything before then had progressed relatively slowly. But in just those years, the change in music, harnessing of electricity, the introduction of film, tv, the change of clothing, sexual equality, transport- could go on and on and on...
