Favorite period drama?

Scorsese's The Age of Innocence -- beautiful costumes and sets, rich cinematography, Winona Rider is hilarious as May Welland, plus Daniel Day-Lewis as Newland Archer -- yum . .. .

Here we go:

Mrs. Brown (Judi Dench as Queen Victoria) -- DH and I have watched this many times

Room with a View (Helena Bonham Carter, Maggie Smith)

Sense and Sensibility (Emma, Hugh, Kate -- wow!)

Pride and Prejudice (Colin, of course)

Persuasion (any version)

Remains of the Day

Howard's End

Brideshead Revisited (Jeremy Irons version)

Foyle's War (Michael Kitchen was also in Out of Africa)

Danger UXB (Anthony Andrews from Brideshead)

BTW, I don't care for Mansfield Park (any version) -- too contrived and some of the characters are too hurtful.
