The book is amazing; I couldn’t put it down! I love Michelle Pfeiffer’s interpretation of this character, fragile and a little mouthy all at once! A layered and complex performance…

At that time she is attracted by her (because she is so different) but he thinks he is in love with May. So he feels safe to cultivate the friendship. Same with the countess, she does not want to break up an egagement. (I go by how it is written in the book).

Why did he say that he was in love with May as much as a man could be, which would imply that he loved her to the limit of what a man could, but in the very next breath said that if there were a limit to how much a man could love, then he never experienced it? That's an outright logical contradiction! 😮

He was acustomed to speaking in cliches. Ellens response takes him aback when he realizes the meaning behind the cliche. She lives above the stilted polite conversation of the society.

I am mot regretful of this era. In fact I am nostalgic over it, since our modern society tends to indulge in over expressing of any random thought that entered anyone’s mind.

also there is a rediculous narcissistic assumption that they would be born into aristocracy. When in reality they can't even make it into upper-middle class which is vast and open nowadays. You are really lucky you are born today. If you were born there, you would die under a bridge or would work for 18 hours a day in really sh!tty job till the end of your life.

Countess Olenska was born in the US but she left to marry a count. She comes back to NY years later having separated from her husband against everyone's wishes. This was a scandal because it was considered immoral to leave your husband.

And she was more open minded and accepting of people outside her social status. She was more of a free thinker and saw the absurdity of some of the social restrictions. The more you watch this film the more witty her conversations seem. She's a tragic figure who is doing her best to hold on to her childhood memories of her birthplace and family. Unfortunate those friends and family are only willing to forgive her to the degree she stays within their social norms. They are not the safe haven from her abusive husband she needs.

Most of them did nothing productive. They tried to imitate the aristocratic class of GB in that respect. They were born into very wealthy / rich families and partially into influental families. Archie had no father (anymore) and his widowed mother adored him. He held an office job (sounded like lower management to me, or maybe he played the assistant for the rich relative that had hired him, w/o expecting him to be productive - I forgot the details it's been years I read the book). His mother was always worried that they "made him work too hard" when in reality he came in and half of the time he read the news papers. This was more like an appropriate time to spend your time for a young man. If they had been British gentry his past time would have been hunting and riding, but that did not work out when living year round in New York. The women stood up late, ate breakfast, shopped. Wrote letters, and received visitors. They attended social events. If they were really bored it was appropriate to play an instrument or sing, maybe reading. And doing crafts. But hardly ever something that was remotely useful. And a very limited way of doing "charity". Which cemented the difference of the classes. Throwing some breadcrumbs and the recipients had to be meek and excessively thankful. They were parasites. But did not necessarily have a good or happy or interesting life despite their privileges. As for the visuals it is of course much more satisfying to show the life of the rich. The ballroom scenes are stunning and wardrobe and equipment must have gotten large budgets. And the china ! probably they were able to borrow originals from museums. (insurance alone costs a fortune).

For some reason this is probably my least favorite period drama. It’s so … placid. And the two leads haven’t a drop of chemistry together.
