DREADFUL
Just taken on the merits of this particular production, The Pursuit of Love is awful. Poor character development; gratuitous sex; choppy incoherent plot...and Lily James acting with her lips and looking 10 years too old for the part. But for any fan of Nancy Mitford, the author of the source material; and for any fan of the great 1980 production - or even the good but not great 2000 production- this mess is downright sacrilegious. Treat yourself - watch Love in a Cold Climate, available on Amazon, and/or read the originals books by Nancy Mitford.
