I wasn't particularly impressed with this movie, other than the cinematography. I was unfamiliar with any of the actors, although I think I had hear John Mills name before. So I came into with no preconceived ideas of their acting abilities or talents. While the actors seemed to portray their characters reasonably, I think it was more the lack of pace and excitement in the plot itself that was this film's flaw. I'm a big fan of mystery films, so I was expecting to be held in suspense and on the edge of my seat, but there was none of that here for me.
Even though John Mills I'm sure is a decent actor, he seemed a little milquetoast in personality. Perhaps it was just the character's personality, but it made it hard for me to root for him.
But I did really love the cinematography. It was quite beautiful. And I love the time period and seeing the old house and sets.
