Re: DVD site review of New Worlds (Long & Very Complete
I may watch the DVD when it gets to my local library. Otherwise, I think NW exhibited the same factors present in most of the current miniseries on TV - over-the-top violence and an emphasis on a young, meant-to-be sexy cast. Ergo, less of Jeremy than we would have liked. Still, I'm glad for the reviewer's acknowledgment both of Jeremy and James Cosmo. whom he failed to identify as Mr. Weston. Austen evidently wouldn't be the reviewer's cup of tea.
