Product Description:
It's 1937 and the storm clouds of World War II gather across Europe. Tensions also simmer beneath the seemingly charmed lives of the Cazalet family. While this grand family saga commences during an idyllic summer at the Cazalet's Sussex country estate the years that follow will see birth death marriage adultery dementia intrigue and war play significant roles.Acclaimed for its richly detailed production talented cast and brilliant character depictions this vivid and poignant family portrait revolves around the wives lovers and children of the four Cazalet siblings: hard-working Hugh womanizing Edward spinster Rachel and the artistic Rupert.Soon after Hitler enters Poland and England enters the war the lives of three generations intertwine as devastating secrets explode like a blitzkrieg. Hardships invade with brutal reality and slowly the Cazalet's decorum can no longer mask their problems. As both the country and family are splintered by war the Cazalets must prove they have the strength to endure.Based on Elizabeth Jane Howard's captivating family epic The Cazalets stars Tony Award®-winner Stephen Dillane (The Real Thing) Hugh Bonneville (Madame Bovary) Paul Rhys (From Hell) and Emma Griffiths Malin (Mary Reilly).System Requirements: Running Time 360 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 783421354494 Manufacturer No: WG35449
