My Reviews on
Downtown Abbey
I have finished the
first three seasons of the Downtown Abbey this
semester. I hold a firm belief that is
an ideological and spiritual feast.
Downton Abbey is a British period drama
television series created
by Julian
Fellowes and co-produced by Carnival Films and
Masterpiece.
The series,
set in the fictional Yorkshire country estate of
Downton Abbey,
depicts the lives of the
aristocratic Crawley family and their servants in
the post-Edwardian era
—
with the great events in
history having an effect
on their lives
and on the British social hierarchy, such as the
news of the
sinking of the RMS Titanic
in the first series, the outbreak of World War I,
the Spanish influenza pandemic, the
Marconi scandal in the second series,
and the Interwar period and the
formation of the Irish Free State in the
third series.
For me ,it is
a visual feast and a huge shock on my thoughts.
China born and China bred, I know
clearly the social transformation
of
our nation, from feudal monarchy to an
independent, free, democratic
and
unified
socialist
country.
I
have
been
always
curious
about
the
transition
of
western
countries,
but
the
stiff
explanation
on
the
history
books
can
’
f satisfy me at all. The
Downtown Abbey shows me vividly the
social changes of England during the
revolution in a different form.
The TV play just focus on a very common
as well as typical manor,
