Undescribable Perfection

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

For those of us who LOVE time period shows this is exactly what we like to see. Give these shows a chance to get off the ground before you cancel them!

I really enjoyed the series: the beautiful sets and costumes, the outstanding music and the stellar cast! The Halcyon gets better and better each episode with great characters and interesting story lines. If you like period dramas, you're in for a treat!Let's hope there will be a season 2 :)

The Halcyon has certainly delivered, it's cleverly written and has brilliant actors - how ANYONE can say that the homosexuality in it is pointless is beyond me when we are talking about an era when it was still illegal! It was beautifully and sensitively written. The characters are brilliant and have great chemistry - here's hoping for a second series!

Interesting characters, good premise but this latest episode seemed to be pulled off centre. Secondary and temporary/guest characters have started to distract me from main plot arc. There has only been 2 directors so far and there is a third untried director next week. I'm starting to feel that it might become more of a soap than a historical drama. I would prefer more history to histrionics. I can sense something wrong with some of the cast. Can't put my finger on it at this time. Maybe a power struggle in the writers room.I noticed that the shows creator, Charlotte Jones, had sole writing credit in all the other episodes and that she was second billing in this 4th episode, that could say a lot.
