《唐顿庄园 第四季》观后感(一)：Penelope Wilton: a woman of substance Nina Myskow / 30 January 2015
enelope（马修妈）七十年代曾经有个儿子，早产9周生下来即是死胎。次年生了一个女儿，同样早产两个多月但是活下来了。说自己想生养三个孩子，但是只能有这个女儿了。采访时候女儿还正好打了电话进来，用的是特别关注铃声她还立刻接听了。
enelope Wilton talks about her TV, film and stage career, love in later life and the burden of child loss.
Actor Penelope Wilton
enlope Wilton talks to Saga
It’s in the dying minutes of the interview that I get a sudden glimpse of the real Penelope Wilton behind the respected and celebrated actress.
Up until this point, five minutes into overtime, with the car waiting outside to take her home from the photoshoot and interview, Downton Abbey’s Isobel Crawley has been charming and polite and obliging, despite the fact that you sense that this whole process is not really her cup of tea.
Ever the professional, she gamely enters into the spirit of it all however, trying on colours that she would never normally wear, eventually swaying to the music in the studio as the camera shutter clicks away. Afterwards she talks enthusiastically and fluently about her work.
With an OBE and an honorary Doctor of Letters, both tributes to her acting skills, Penelope is undoubtedly at the top of her game at the moment.
tage, screen and sitcom
A familiar face since Ever Decreasing Circles, the Eighties sitcom in which she played Ann, the long-suffering wife of Richard Briers’ obsessive Martin, she puts paid once and for all to the theory that older actresses struggle to find parts unless they’re Judi Dench or Maggie Smith, both of whom she works with and counts as friends.
est known these days for Downton (which also stars Peter Egan who played her 'will they？ won't they？' neighbour Paul in Ever Decreasing Circles), she is not only returning in The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, a sequel to the surprise hit film, which pulled in $135 million, but is also starring on the West End stage in Taken at Midnight, a powerful new play set in Thirties Nazi Germany, which garnered her glowing reviews on its run at Chichester Festival Theatre.
Theatre, television, film？ She seems to have them all sewn up right now. ‘I’m astounded, myself,’ she laughs, and in typically modest fashion says: ‘It’s marvellous and I’m really delighted, but it’s happenstance: these things happen from time to time. I have to thank my agent.’
I expect it’s the other way round (her performance in this compelling version of an unknown true story has been hailed as ‘superb’ and ‘magnificent’), but she’d be too unassuming to think that.
Taken at Midnight
enelope plays the mother of a celebrated young lawyer, Hans Litten, who in 1931 put Adolf Hitler on the witness stand, subjecting him to a searing cross-examination. As soon as Hitler came to power two years later, Litten was seized in retribution, and incarcerated in Sonnenberg concentration camp. ‘It’s the story of a mother’s struggle to save her son,’ she says. The play is about the high price of resisting tyranny.
‘Her son disappeared, like thousands in Germany of the wrong political persuasion at the time. It was before the war and the big round-up of the Jewish population. She didn’t want him to be forgotten. It’s a wonderful play and I can’t believe my luck.’
It is, though, emotionally draining: ‘I don’t do much else when I’m doing this,’ she says. ‘But I’ve got over being depressed, that’s self-indulgent. I’m just telling the story, and delighted it’s out there. It’s about freedom of speech and reminds us that democracy is a fragile thing. We take it for granted – that’s what democracy is – but we do have to guard it. It’s a sacred thing, really. Very precious.
Mothers of the 'disappeared'
‘It’s about mothers who will do anything, who fight for their children, and it speaks for mothers who are in Argentina, in Chile, in Bosnia and Egypt. Mothers of the disappeared. It’s happening now. Boko Haram have taken all those girls away in Africa, and it’s the women who always stand there on the front line, and they won’t let them be forgotten. It’s instinctive for mothers. We look after our children, they come first.’
Family ties
enelope has a daughter, Alice, now 36, a theatre projects manager, from her first marriage to the late actor Daniel Massey. On cue her phone rings (a whistle ringtone), and it’s Alice. Penelope apologises as she takes the call quickly to tell her the coincidence of our location, Sunbeam Studios in West London. We are in the same vast-ceilinged space where Alice married a couple of years ago.
‘Do you remember Sunbeam cars？’ she asks when she hangs up. Sunbeam Rapier, I ask？ ‘That’s the one. This building used to be the Sunbeam showroom before it was turned into studios. We hired it for the wedding. It was marvellous, we had a lovely time. So I have a lovely son-in-law called Elliott and a grandson Daniel who’s two and a half.’
The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
As a complete contrast to Taken at Midnight, The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is a romp and great fun. In the sequel to the story of a bunch of retirees who move to a hotel in India for a last chance at life, Penelope returns as Jean who, unlike the others, loathed the experience and exited her marriage to Douglas (Bill Nighy) and India in high dudgeon.
Rather playing against type？ Penelope has innate moral authority, integrity, a kind of goodness that you sense. ‘I assure you I’m not that good,’ she laughs.
‘Well, poor woman, she was having a nervous breakdown. Not everyone is going to be filled with sweetness and light in India. And if you’re having an unhappy marriage, going to another place, you take that with you. You take yourself with you.’
Marriage lines
enelope has been twice married and divorced. As I’d read that her first husband married her own sister two years later, we discussed marriage. Her second husband, Sir Ian Holm, was also an actor. I ask if two actors understand each other better and she says they understand the insecurity of the profession, but adds, ‘Any success or failure you have in a marriage is a personal one’.
I mention her second husband and suddenly she says: ‘Actually I don’t want to talk about my marriages, if you don’t mind.’ She is polite but firm. ‘I think we’ll just say they were very good actors.’ She laughs, a bit nervously.
‘It’s not worth speaking about really. I was very happy at certain times in both marriages, but they didn’t work out, so probably best to leave it like that.’ Fair enough.
We stick to safer territory, working on the film in India. ‘My character Jean’s not in it as much as the others because she’s gone back, but she returns with her daughter.’ And with a fabulously waspish line. Surveying all the other retirees she declares, ‘I couldn’t resist the chance to come back and visit the crumbling old ruins – and to see how the hotel building’s going as well!’ She loves doing comedy, and working with old chums such as Judi Dench and Maggie Smith is a treat.
‘Maggie and Judi are lots of laughs, great fun. And all of us, it’s a very easy group of people.’ There are shopping trips with Celia Imrie as well. ‘India has lovely fabrics but you’ve got to be careful. They look wonderful over there, and then you bring them home and think, “Why on earth did I buy that？” But wonderful cottons, nighties and dressing gowns, stuff for children.
‘Because you hang about a lot with filming, we play a lot of Bananagrams, a very quick sort of Scrabble.’ They play it on Downton, too: ‘They put up a table for us off-set. Maggie mostly wins, but Laura Carmichael, who plays Lady Edith, is extremely good at it. Great game.’
The romance between Isobel Crawley and Lord Merton is currently stalled.
‘His sons are very anti the wedding,’ she says. ‘They don’t think she’s good enough to take their mother’s place. However, he’s been asked back for the next series, so perhaps things will move on!’ she reveals with a laugh.
Love in later life
The thought of late-flowering love is very uplifting. ‘Oh, it is,’ she agrees. ‘And it happens a lot. I mean, look at Judi. Her late husband Michael Williams was such a darling man. But now David [her current partner, David Mills] is extremely nice, and she’s very happy. So it’s really lovely.’
ut what about her？ ‘Oh, I’m very happy as I am,’ she says. ‘I live on my own. I’ve lived on my own for quite a while now. I don’t mind it at all. I have visitors, especially my grandson, who likes to be in my bed more than anything in the world. So that’s who shares my life.’ And your bed, I suggest. We laugh.
‘I’d never say never,’ she confesses. ‘I’m not looking out thinking I’m only half a person if I’m not with someone. But who knows？’
Who knows indeed？ She looks terrific. At 68 she is slender and fit, healthy, with glowing skin and twinkling, intelligent eyes.
‘Age is not something I think about,’ she says. ‘Age doesn’t come into it.’ She doesn’t eat much processed food, and loves cooking. ‘I love a glass of wine, red mostly. I like white too. Well, I like any old thing!’ She giggles. ‘And prosecco’s nice.’
he’s a great walker, often goes for walking holidays in the north of England and does about five miles every morning through the parks in London: ‘Much more interesting than going to a gym, so boring. And it gives you time to yourself. You can sort out your day, clear your mind.’
he loves London, and makes great use of the art, the classical music: ‘Looking at paintings, going to concerts, and walking. Sounds rather po-faced but it’s what I like.’
In her younger days she loved The Stones, The Beatles, Tom Jones: ‘But with children you miss out on a generation of music.’ Stevie Wonder makes her dance: ‘He had a daughter at the same time I had Alice, so Isn’t She Lovely seemed to epitomise what I felt about her.’
The interview is drawing to a close and I ask if she has any regrets in life. She pauses and rather surprisingly confides, ‘I wish my marriages had worked, but there you go. I wish my first marriage had worked more.’
Loss of a child
he hesitates. ‘I wish I’d had more children, but I lost one before I had Alice. I had a little boy before Alice, whom I lost. Alice was only two pounds nine ounces, so she was tiny. She was ten weeks early. I would have liked to have had three children, but I’ve got her.’
he just lets it out: ‘I went in at 12 weeks and had her at 30 weeks. I was in the hospital four months waiting for her, and all that time they looked after me at St Thomas’s. But I’ve got her, so there we go, I’m very lucky.’ But what a dreadful experience, how traumatic, I sympathise, and she continues: ‘He was premature, a week younger than Alice, 29 weeks, and he just didn’t survive, poor little chap. And yes it was dreadful, but it was a long time ago.’ She is marvellously stiff upper lip.
ut these things hang on, linger in your mind, don’t they？ ‘They do, but I’m so lucky I’ve got Alice, and this little grandson now.’ Did she name the baby she lost？ ‘No,’ she says. ‘You didn’t in those days, they didn’t even tell you. He was just taken away.’
As she gets up to leave, she says: ‘But that’s all gone. And this little chap is called Daniel, after Alice’s father. And it’s all right now. Yes, it was a difficult time, but one doesn’t want to make too much of it. It’s just one of those things that happens, and it happens to a lot of people.’
And, as she’s on her way. ‘Has it changed me？ I think I appreciate things. I appreciate my daughter more than I can say.’
《唐顿庄园 第四季》观后感(二)：hh
其实唐屯儿看到现在 已经不太关注爱情线 （既然大表哥终于娶了大玛丽， sybil也难产死了，edith和她那个忘年交大概会一直和麦格教授还有她爹斗争，Anna和Bates更是尿点啊，一出现就快进有木有！）虽然还是会觉得大表哥竟然这么喜欢大玛丽这种刻薄骄傲的女人。果然是再惹人嫌的人，只要有个人愿意包容就好了。但是大表哥呢！大表哥屎了啊！
说好不关注爱情线的
大表哥的妈妈真是可爱，没有因为地位不如亲家就从此鸵鸟做人。而是百万份热情的和Grantham一家作斗争，处处唱反调……
老太太也在各种孙女一夜情，家族面临破产，美国奔放亲家母的状况下享受起贫民的生活
还有各种downstairs的章鱼婶，小gay，胖厨娘，呆萌呆萌的Mr.Carson
最近又看了一遍，章鱼婶又让我惊呆了。
先是“I'm not an octopus”然后是“If she‘s got a boyfriend, I’m a giraffe ”
那种从楼上楼下，贵族下层的等级分明到战后不得已的妥协，老Grantham的变化越来越明显。整个第三季一直在财产和家族企业中挣扎，封建思想好像终于解除结界
《唐顿庄园 第四季》观后感(三)：唐顿内核不变
因为演员退演，剧中马修突兀地、令人震惊地死去，在最“不该”死去的时刻、在幸福是那样完满的时刻死去。随之玛丽也从云端跌落谷底。马修死时那苍白冰冷的面庞和仅仅几分钟前的圆满、喜悦形成了惊悚的对比。生命就在瞬间被夺去，鲜活迷人温暖的大表哥瞬间就变成一具尸体，从世界上永远消失。。。
这戏外人事变动所带来的突兀的死亡，巧合地展示了人生中有时不可预料、甚至是不可规避的惊人丧失和转折。大圆满向大丧失的骤然转变虽然很戏剧化，却也提醒着我们生命的本质--即不变的变化。
而由戏外的变化巧合地引出戏内的有关choose either life or death的课题也让人觉得不言而喻地巧妙。虽然第四季各种人物情节给我一些散乱的感觉，但其实无论人事变动，Downton的内核依旧闪耀，是可以由各色人物体现出来的有关人性、人情、绅士、优雅。。。以及这一切体现出来的价值观和智慧。换言之，它展现的就是人生啊，那些还活着的人物的姿态、心态和行动才是我们要关注的。
特别喜欢老夫人，妙语连珠，能把负面感受表达地这么可爱。能够把一切化”轻“才是承载了”重“才有的智慧啊。。。和Mrs. Crawley是真爱啊。还有Mrs. Hughs，善良正义智慧人情味的化身。。。
另外mary让人惊叹的就是她的grace，好像是在怎样的外境面前她都能保持自己的姿态和尊贵，她是从内到外的 尊贵 .
/
看唐顿的时候，其实就跟看其他电视剧、电影、书一样，暂时地遗忘了自己不尽人意的生活而进入到另一个世界，travel到上个世纪两次世界大战背景下的英国庄园，神游并情感上参与those upstairs and downstairs的生活。
因为不论剧情发展总会给观众许多安稳人心的东西，而随时又有变化、激动、紧张、戏剧性的事在上演，可谓comfort和interest兼顾，可谓纯粹的pain和boredom的同时免去，大大宽慰了我的被个人生活重大却又渺小的事情而折磨痛苦的精神。。。。。
当然了还有它提供的家的感觉。虽然楼上楼下各色人物都有，但是浓浓的人情味和很正的价值观是不变的。。。谁叫人都需要爱呢
I love Downton!
《唐顿庄园 第四季》观后感(四)：Choice between death life
昨晚在Twitter上得知夜里2：31英国那边首播，自己今天一起床就一直在关注，直到刚才看到优酷上同步更新。心里实在是激动得不得了。
这么多日子的等待，终于换来了一个未另大家失望的Downton！
看了第一集，想在这里和大家分享下自己的感受。
从开片被黑夜所包围的大庄园，到O'brien夜里的不辞而别，再到Mary和永不离身的黑色衣服，第一集绝大部分都被一种怀念大表哥的悲伤氛围所笼罩。
其实细心点可以注意到，开片的无尽黑夜和最后几分钟那个灿烂的朝阳的对比，正是第一集Downton想要告诉我们的———悲伤如斯，但这并不是生活的全部。人总得向前看。
We can't always live in the past, Just
LOOK FORWARD……
ates和Mrs Bates一次次洋溢幸福的深情对视，Edith数次前往伦敦大胆追求自己的幸福，楼下人互相间的帮助与关怀，这一切无不让我从心底里为他们感到高兴。
看看大表哥母亲Isobel。她对Mrs Hughes说：没了儿子，感觉自己什么也不是，什么对自己来说似乎都无意义了。
作为一个母亲，没有什么比失去孩子更令她心痛的了。但她并没有一味沉浸在痛苦与悲伤之中，而是重新面对生活，又开始做那个老好人帮助别人了^_^。
再来看看我们的可爱的老夫人，她现在也开始忙来忙去，各种帮助各种鼓励，真的好有爱啊^_^
不过看到Mary前去道歉，抱着Carson痛哭时，我自己的眼泪也不争气地出来了-_-#
不过那时候我便知道，我们之前的傲气Mary要回来了?
第二天出乎所有人意料地出现在大家面前，然后开始各种谈事情，真的特别特别洋气！
看看她爹吃惊的表情，再看看Branson那激动的样子，我顿时觉得，这才是我们的Mary啊啊啊?
对了，有两句话想拿出来和大家共勉。
You must choose either death or life.这是老妇人鼓励Mary的话。
还有一句，是Carson安慰Mary时说的。
ecause YOU are strong.You are strong ENOUGH for the task.
爱死Downton了啊啊啊……
想到只有9集真的好忧伤啊。算了，还是坐等下一集吧，看我们的Mary要怎样重新神气，看诱惑我们Branson的女仆会如何表现，看我们的Edith又会如何争取自己的幸福?还有我们的小王子和小公主啊啊啊?
All u，HAPPY DOWNTON DAY!
Kisses
《唐顿庄园 第四季》观后感(五)：一如既往最好的唐顿庄园
之前因为Anna被rape事件几乎让我压抑地看不下去，歇了一段时间终于重拾起来，看到Mary能够重新振作真的让人欣慰，多亏了Tom的帮忙指点，虽然老伯爵的守旧让我有时候不太喜欢他了，伊人已逝，活着的人毕竟要向前看，她和布雷克救猪那段真心赞，不仅改变了两人的关系也让我觉得Mary真的上得庄园下得农场，越来越期待在她的带领下的发展变化，不过布莱克最后一集身价的曝光让我很好奇Mary最后会选择谁，不过格林厄姆公爵还是很讨喜的，绅士而又有一种坚韧的爱意始终萦绕。
马修的妈妈Isobel也重回battle，她的love line不知道会不有，我还是挺喜欢医生的，毕竟一个战线上这么久了。仍旧十分喜欢老太太，不过听说她接下来要去世，让我十分难过，不过她活的也算是挺久了。老太太生病，马修妈妈照顾她那一段也是真心感人 ，老太太的刀子嘴豆腐心一览无余，她们的情意也真是让人动容。
楼上纷乱，楼下也没闲着。他们仍然温情脉脉，当然不乏斗争。这一季更加喜欢Mrs.Hughes，感觉她总是能够临危不乱并且有一颗细腻的心去帮助别人。托马斯和新来的贴身女仆似乎还有些事情没有交代，不过莫斯利的回归让他扮演了一个英勇的角色。Betes和Anna虽有间隙总算稳定如初。不过那个仆人的死亡让人总是隐隐觉得有什么蹊跷要揭晓。
两个女厨Daisy和艾薇也是让帕特莫太太操碎了心，不过James还是一如既往没什么变化 ，威廉倒是很上进还去了丽兹饭店，虽然艾薇还是拒绝了她但是也让她心生好感，可怜的Daisy，不过Cora的哥哥带来的男仆很喜欢她也算是弥补了一下，不过不满足于现状的艾薇要走，觉得下一季势必又要增加女仆，不过最初的卡森，休斯太太，帕特莫太太，Daisy都还在就还好。
一如既往期待下一季。
《唐顿庄园 第四季》观后感(六)：好看
该剧是英国ITV出品的古典剧，由荣获奥斯卡的金牌编剧Julian Fellowes一手打造， 明星云集的演员阵容极其耀眼。 第二季的故事从1916年到1918年康边停战协定。正值战争时期，壮年男性都去了前线参加战争，而Grantham伯爵Robert因为年龄而无法服役而留下。而唐顿庄园却因此遭到了男性劳动力的短缺。Grantham家三个女儿的命运也发生了改变。Mary为了掩盖年少时的丑闻不得已与一暴发户订婚，当回到唐顿发现Matthew已经订婚时，强忍悲伤。Edith一改往日张扬跋扈留在家中照顾前来疗养的士兵。Sybil不但投身于为女权运动还不顾反对与家中的司机结合。同样，在本季中，Bates和Anna的感情戏也加重了戏码。在这个战火缭绕的年代，这个家庭又会发生了怎么样的变化呢？
《唐顿庄园 第四季》观后感(七)：唐顿庄园之旧瓶新酒
唐顿庄园之旧瓶新酒
外国电视剧获得美国电视剧大奖艾美奖不多见, 唐顿庄园做到了. 唐顿庄园披着怀旧的外衣, 诉说着崭新的观念, 一网打尽老中青各路人马, 进而成为人类最爱的电视剧, 当然定语是2010年.
旧瓶
故事开头相当老套. 伯爵有三个女儿, 大女儿只有出嫁才能继承庄园. 这样的故事我听了很多遍好不好？ 傲慢与偏见, 理性与感性… 第二季讲到战争和失去, 有点像乱世佳人吧. 至于各类勾心斗角, 喜欢看宫斗的有福了. 大量对贵族生活的详细描写和对诗词音乐历史的引用又如同红楼梦一般. 1921年的英国拥有地球1/4的陆地和1/4的人口, 难怪近百年以后唐顿庄园能让地球人老中青三代心甘情愿地吞下古典高贵的诱饵, 听新生代的贵族娓娓道来借古讽今时代变迁的故事. (作者Julian Fellowes娶了贵族而封爵.)
新酒
弱势群体的遭遇总能更深刻地反映时代的巨变, 并且更能受到人们的关注. 只有女儿的家庭多次成为作家们的主题, 除了上面的傲慢与偏见, 理性与感性, 乱世佳人, ”屋顶上的提琴手”描写1905年五个女儿的犹太家庭, 其犹太身份使其成为弱势群体中的弱势. 不要忘了莫言的丰乳肥臀通过八个女儿的家庭描写了1900到1999中国的百年沧桑.
唐顿庄园的一半笔墨描写楼下的仆人. 对弱势群体的描写既包括楼下的绝对弱势群体, 也有伯爵女儿这样的在楼上的相对的弱势群体. 唐顿庄园在弱势群体的话题上有新意, 不但有我们以前所熟知的同工同酬, 更重要的是机会平等. 举例说明,乐嘉和黄菡之间曾有男女平等的讨论. 乐嘉认为男女厕所的隔间为一比三就能实现平等, 而黄菡并不领情, 认为真正的平等应该是男女不分厕. 乐嘉的想法是我们男性普遍的想法, 认为男女平等还是应该由男性说了算并由男性定一个标准. 而黄菡则提出了正解, 无论这个正解是如何让男性难以接受.
唐顿庄园就刻画了同工同酬到机会平等的这一观念转变. 第一季中仆人GWEN成为了第一代白领丽人. 第二季开头的索姆河战役牺牲了大量男性公民, 唐顿的女性们不得不参加了战地医疗, 运输, 募捐等活动. 一战结束的1918年, 英国女性争取到了投票权.
伯爵承诺每一个长期员工的养老. 但剧中多次提到的100年前的英国首相乔治Lloyd George则建立社会福利系统来解决弱势群体的养老问题.
另外托马斯是100年以前的同性恋, 可惜他不能活着看到2013年英国通过同性婚姻的法律.
美国观众的狂热是唐顿庄园在地球人中流行的重要推手, 第一夫人米歇尔多次要求在第一时间看到该剧. 第一季里的Change(改革)是奥巴马2008年的竞选口号, 第二季里的Forward(继续改革)是奥巴马2012年的竞选口号. 剧中多次提到100年前的英国首相乔治Lloyd George, 其倡导的对弱势群体医保改革在英国早已实现, 但在美国终于在奥巴马任内生效. 难怪第一夫人这么关心唐顿庄园, 难怪美国公共电视台PBS愿意花纳税人的钱去进口这样一部外国电视剧, 难怪它获得美国电视大奖艾美奖, 难怪奥巴马的总统竞选对手罗姆尼的承诺是关闭公共电视台, 也难怪罗姆尼竞选失败, 看不到唐顿庄园？ 美国人民饶不了你!
投桃报李, 第三季唐顿庄园出现大量美国元素, 伯爵的美国丈母娘莅临指导伯爵应该如何进化成适者生存的生物. 不过这里编剧不露痕迹黑了美国外婆一把, 当她边吃边说滔滔不绝之时, 所有其他贵宾早已结束用餐, 并在耐心地等她吃完.
“维护一座大城堡，需要很多很多钱。Robert(伯爵)年轻的时候，家里已捉襟见肘，于是他娶了富有的美国姑娘Cora，以Cora丰厚的嫁妆拯救唐顿庄园。这是当年的一个典型现象，据说从1870年到1920年的五十年间，大约有几百位美国富家女嫁给英国贵族。这些富家女中，最有名的一位叫Jennie Jerome，是被誉为“华尔街之王”的富豪Leonard Jerome的女儿，于1874年嫁给Marlborough公爵的第三个儿子Randolph Churchill。他俩的长子，日后成为英国最有影响力的领袖之一，首相丘吉尔（Winston Churchill）。” 引号内摘自 靓包博客
总而言之, 不管古典现代, 还是旧瓶新酒, 唐顿庄园总有一个侧面适合你.
唐顿庄园之进化中的贵族
一将功成万骨枯, 古今中外的贵族来历大同小异. 中国只在在周朝以前有贵族, 秦汉后渐渐取消. 欧洲的贵族骄奢淫逸, 只收税不作为, 不能适应社会的变更, 在接踵而来的历次革命中被屠杀殆尽. 只有英国贵族, 懂得适者生存的道理, 自古以来不断地妥协, 终于能进化到今天. 唐顿庄园表现的正式这千年进化中的小小一环.
不像欧洲宜人的气候和各地区都繁荣的经济, 中国只有在黄河流域的生产力最高, 所以中国在秦汉时期吸取了周朝的教训取消了贵族分封制度. 帝国只允许皇位继承人一族繁衍. 例如刘备之类的精神贵族实乃汉景帝之后但也必须卖草鞋为生. 帝国的精英由公务员考试产生(科举). 蒙元和满清征服者们也建立贵族制度, 但结果是昔日骁勇的贵族在战争中一触即溃, 无法保护自己的皇帝和家园.
英国最好的地方是南部的英格兰, 风调雨顺, 农牧兴旺. 地形平坦, 交通发达, 有利于早期的工商业. 但是平坦的地形和与欧洲的近距离使得英格兰易攻难守, 使得英国自古以来被多次侵略征服, 可谓城头变换大王旗. 新来的征服者分封手下大将为贵族, 但是这位征服者逝世之后, 贵族们就内讧. 于是北欧的海盗或者欧洲的贵族表哥们就时不时串个门, 打个劫, 侵个略, 成为新一代的征服者. 后来贵族们又内讧, 历史又开始循环.
最后一个征服英国的欧洲贵族表哥是1066年的诺曼公爵, 他的后人吸取了前人的教训, 终于在之后的一千年里使英国免受其他表哥和海盗的征服. 诺曼王朝的贵族与国王在1215年开始了第一次进化, 他们签订了大宪章, 简单说就是贵族向国王强买了政治权利, 国王必须接受议会通过的法律. 从今天的角度看, 对国王来说这个交易挺合算的, 即来钱, 又能让贵族们在议会里吵架而不是在战场上内讧, 进而能在欧洲表哥或海盗侵略时一致对外.
后来的国王开启了第二次进化, 为削弱贵族的力量, 他把平民也拉入大宪章中以期摊薄贵族们的权力. 这样就开始了新一轮不断进化的循环, 结果是平民的权力见长, 而贵族和国王的权力更加摊薄. 每当战争时贵族必须身先士卒上战场才能对得起其收租的特权. 唐顿庄园中有一定的诠释.
仔细看看唐顿庄园的每个故事, 伯爵本人似乎没有一次独立的做出正确的决定, 倒是当了很多回橡皮图章. 不过这不也正说明当时英国贵族体制的与时俱进吗？ 至少不会因为伯爵一个人的错误导致全盘皆输.
一个非常有趣的细节是当伯爵忧虑跟司机私奔的女儿时, 伯爵夫人劝他高兴点, 因为万一又有什么革命来临, 伯爵在对方阵营还有自己人. 话虽无奈, 但也揭示出英国贵族进化的每一小步都要适应环境, 才能在新世纪继续存在.
唐顿庄园之英剧节奏
不看不知道, 英剧节奏很快, 台词睿智幽默且密集, 让人不愿错过任何一句话 必须十分专心. 美剧就稍稍拖沓一些, 半小时的剧情能拖成一个小时, 2013年人类最爱的电视剧Breaking Bad绝命毒师也不例外. 可能美剧的设计就是为了让观众一边吃饭一边聊天一边推特一边看电视. 无论如何, 这都比天朝的把两小时电影拖成50集电视剧来得紧凑.
唐顿庄园之一战二战
第二季讲到了第一次世界大战. 大胆猜测一下第五第六季会跳跃到二战. 玛丽的儿子小伯爵乔治1921年9月出生, 到二战开始1939年9月满18岁, 作为贵族应该第一批去欧洲前线. 如果是这样的话, 唐顿庄园很可能会失去这个继承人. 然后我们观众又有眼福了.
唐顿庄园之长镜头
长镜头摄影反映出导演的功力. 唐顿庄园总有漂亮的长镜头. 大型豪宅别特别适合长镜头的拍摄, 比如”俄罗斯方舟”里的冬宫, 90分钟电影只有一个长镜头. 第一季开头长镜头跟拍仆人Daisy的上楼生火炉, 带我们参观了豪宅中的主要空间. 第二季的长镜头反映唐顿庄园改建成医院后面貌. 后来玛丽和马修起舞拥吻被Lavinia看见也是一个长镜头.

《唐顿庄园 第四季》观后感(九)：第四季downton总体感觉有些散
一开始看downton就觉得那是一部英国版的红楼梦。后来上豆瓣一看，发现很多粉丝跟我的感觉是一样的。
在这里看到了许多我理解的真正的绅士贵族应有的承担与气度，亲民与务实。
一直都很喜欢Mary，从第一季开始她不以门第和传统观念去取阅一个男人，而是凭自己的判断和认识去选择，以及她倾向于理性的思考，这无一不让周围优秀的男人围着她转。她果敢的性格也让她不像edith那样有些犹豫。因此，她能在时代大潮不断向前推进的时候，很好地把握好自己的定位，以及downton的发展方向，以免其没落走下坡路。
另外一个我很喜欢的人，就是mrs hughes，她是一个能为别人严守秘密，又懂得巧妙化解各种矛盾，运用自己的智慧以及平时与人相处的真诚，一次又一次地把矛盾在downstair的层面上化解。
我感觉第四季的剧情，主要是要交代大时代的一些趋势，以及这个大家族庄园如何在老爷不在，或者老爷不当权的情况下继续发展下去。总的感觉主线不太明晰，大家都往各自的方向走，好像离开downton是迟早的事情。mary的情感线仍不太明朗，edith又准备要去瑞士生孩子，tom又和那个我不喜欢的乡村教师搅和在一起，rose始终是寄人篱下有走的一天，楼下的anna开始担心自己老公是否东窗事发，ivy应该不会只想在这里做一辈子的厨师助手。
在主线角色应该不会离开的情况下，第五季应该就是比较让人期待的一季了。
《唐顿庄园 第四季》观后感(十)：平淡琐碎的后大表哥时代
本想憋到圣诞特辑出完之后再一起看这一季的，一个没忍住周末看完了本季的8集。到第5集时差点想放弃，缺少了大表哥的唐顿庄园也突然失去了主线，主配角各桥段分散琐碎且生硬，有点DH五季之后的感觉。但DH琐碎也是本色，人就是讲生活的，只是五季之后深刻不再而已。唐顿这开剧一袭傲慢与偏见调调，到此季突然有种要演变成讲述老百姓自己的故事的节奏，一时还适应不了。好在摄影唯美依旧，才得以坚持看下去。
估计编剧也意识到，只会含情脉脉对大小姐放电的大眼叔Lord Gilliham无法独自承担起大表哥II代的光荣使命，就为大小姐整了个group of suitors。其中Mr.Blake稍出彩，与大小姐之间从开始的剑拔弩张，到经历满身泥泞的拯救大猪行动后的心有灵犀，虽然情节俗套，但better than nothing，好歹有点低开高走的势头，让人能够期待一下圣诞特辑。
