superb! [Posted on 2008-10-29]
Set in rural England of the mid 19th century and featuring a group of gossipping women, this doesn't seem very likely, altho' several romances and deaths provide some interest. But this film is great viewing due to the excellence of its production. Script, performances (by a tremendous cast) and production values are topnotch: the BBC have not done so well since the 1995 Pride & Prejudice.
A special is promised for Christmas 2009, so this dvd will have plenty of time for frequent viewing.

WELL DONE LOVED IT [Posted on 2008-10-30]
Loved this series. The values they believed in and lived. Hard to find nowadays. Much to be learned from their integrity. Well acted and beautifully filmed. Have lent it out to others who have never heard of it and they loved it to and don't want to give it back.

Charming [Posted on 2008-10-31]
Cranford is an unchanging village with traditions its loathe to part with. A lovely capsule of life in a small town.... Gossips, romances, traditions and grief, all in the life of the inhabitants of Cranford. Judi Dench and the cast are all wonderful.

Everything I Had Hoped [Posted on 2008-11-01]
I always read the reviews posted before I make a purchase. So I am writing this to confirm the previous reviews stating what a fantastic movie this is. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Make the purchase! You'll not regret it!

It makes you a better person to watch it [Posted on 2008-11-13]
I just finished watching Cranford and was moved in all my emotions. It is a beautiful piece about friendship, sacrifice, loyalty, mercy, regrets, new hope, and romantic love at ALL stages of life. I can truly say this is a film that WILL stay with me for months and years. While I found it dark at times (a couple grim surgeries and the oppressive poverty of a major character) the film was a mix of sun and shade, just as life. Do not expect the lightness of Austen throughout, but the depth of story is tremendous. The acting was perfect, the production values were wonderful, and I consider this film a gem.
