by Humphrey Pakington ‧ RELEASE DATE: May 24, 1943
For the group that has learned to enjoy Thirkell, this 11 year panorama of English family and country life will show Victorianism in absurd, tender, generally appealing aspects. The Wargrave family, their relatives, neighbors and friends, their interfering Aunt Eliza, the matrimonial chess games, the various careers of the children -- all in a genteel tongue-in-cheek, gentle to skittish saga.
