Based on the critically acclaimed novel by Evelyn Waugh.
This film version focuses on forbidden love and the loss of innocence, set in the pre-WWII era. Charles Ryder (Matthew Goode) becomes entranced with the noble Marchmain family, first through the charming and provocative Sebastian Flyte (Ben Whishaw), and then his sister, Julia (Hayley Atwell). The rise and fall of Charles' infatuations reflect the decline of a decadent aristocracy in England between the wars — chronicled through his repeated visits to the Marchmain's Brideshead estate.
I LOVE THIS MOVIE! One of my all-time faves. Not exactly the greatest adaptation from the book, but it is still one of the most epic films ever in its own right. I'd been wanting to watch the trailer, thanks for the upload! :)
