Plot. With Greg Wise, Keeley Hawes, Terrence Hardiman, Mellan Mitchell. A bold new adaptation of Wilkie Collins' classic gothic novel. Actor's performances are over the top and very broad . A photographer on a trip to Japan meets a fellow American woman and they quickly fall in love.
It is an adaptation of the Wilkie Collins 1868 novel of the same name described by T.S. Directed by Robert Bierman. Can't seem to decide if it is a drama or comedy. The charismatic Franklin Blake must solve the disappearance of the Moonstone in order to win back the woman he loves, the beautiful, principled and independent Rachel Verinder.It is 1849, and Franklin Blake comes back to England after his father's death, forced to face the ghosts of the year before. Rachel is devastated by the loss of the diamond and leaves for London, casting suspicion on herself. Deep in the heavily guarded vault of jovial King Gunther lies the most cherished and wonderful of all national treasures - the Moonstone Gem.
It is one of few presentations that entices the viewer to watch it again. I have never purchased a DVD like this before, and if anyone has an answer as to how I can take the DVD out, and put in back in again to episode 4, please post your answer as to how U can do this. Received with same day shipping when our daughter said she wished it for her birthday (the next day). Definitely dated - maybe it’s tlme to redo this story with a more uo-to-date direction and cast of actors.and I loved it. No really much that is subtle about this production. The jewel goes missing and suspicion falls over the household, threatening to destroy someone close to Rachel's heart. I think one word describes it and that is "Hammy". Highly recommend this new adaptation of Moonstone. Though The Moonstonewas produced for television previously in the ’90s, this classic piece of literature is not a period piece I’ve seen. This time I was rather dissapointed Jennings has one solution - Franklin must put his life at risk by restaging of the night of the party in the hope it will prove his innocence once and for all. Cuff focuses on the odd behavior of Rosanna, a reformed thief who now works as a servant in the Verinder house. The model takes into account factors including the age of a rating, whether the ratings are from verified purchasers, and factors that establish reviewer trustworthiness.Sorry, we failed to record your vote. The movie is great because the main character had to deal with self conflict because of the stolen moonstone. The jewel goes missing and suspicion falls over the household, threatening to destroy someone close to Rachel's heart. I bought this DVD because it was a BBC prodution and they usually are very good. The famous Indian Moonstone was stolen on the night of Rachel Verinder's 18th birthday and Franklin seeks out the Verinder family butler, for his help in finding the jewel. I like English Dramas, and mysteries, and have quite a library now over the years. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. Prime members enjoy FREE Delivery and exclusive access to music, movies, TV shows, original audio series, and Kindle books. If you want to know what this film is about, it`s about 3 hours too long ! Even the young girl who owns the diamond won't say whom she saw took it.
Each episode is about an hour long and it is a well done adaptation of Wilkie Collins famous book, The Moonstone, known for being the first detective novel ever. The Moonstone is a daytime drama series produced by King Bert Productions for BBC One. Somehow Amazon has screwed up and these reviews are for an old black and white movie of The Moonstone.
The jewel goes missing and suspicion falls over the household, threatening to destroy someone close to Rachel's heart.
In 1926, with her personal life in tatters and her writing in crisis, a young Agatha Christie decides to solve a real-life murder. A fresh adaptation of English literature's first great detective novel.
The famous Indian Moonstone was stolen on the night of Rachel Verinder's 18th birthday and Franklin seeks out the Verinder family butler, for his help in finding the jewel. I`ve just watched the brilliant Dickensian with Steven Rea skillfully playing a detective, though once again, thanks to the BBC`s CDG, we have a Black Artful Dodger and a mixed race Little Nell.
Ignore the reviews here! Stars: Vivien Heilbron, Robin Ellis, Basil Dignam.
The good king's troubles begin when the evil baron manages to steal the priceless jewel. The Taking of the Moonstone. Very enjoyable.
Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. loved it very enjoyable but I like Willkie Collins Then I find it a bit boring to say the very least.
A priceless jewel, originally plundered from a Hindu shrine, is presented to Rachel Verinder on her 18th birthday.
If he doesn't find it, then Rachel, the love of his life, will be lost to him forever. Well conceptualized! I bought the Moonstone DVD and it doesn't seem to ever end.
Typical Monogram whodunit from the 30's, with dialogue and sound effects based on the well known mystery book with same title.
A priceless jewel, originally plundered from a Hindu shrine, is presented to Rachel Verinder on her 18th birthday. With this lavish new BBC production now available on Amazon Prime, there’s no better time to discover what this story is all about. possibly the first detetctive story in the English Language Rachel Verinder, Franklin's beautiful young cousin, inherited the stone from her uncle on her 18th birthday.
"The Moonstone" centers on the theft of a cursed but priceless diamond. Eliot as the first and greatest of English detective novels. First of all, it doesn't have episode cut offs where you can go back later on to go straight to where you left off. Well done!
Shot mainly in candle light for `atmosphere`, great if you happen to own a pair of night vision goggles.
