Synopsis

Based on a novel by Edith Wharton, The Buccaneers follows four wealthy young women -- Nan (Carla Gugino), Virginia St. George (Alison Eliott), Conchita Closson (Mira Sorvino), and Lizzy Elmsworth (Rya Kihlstedt) -- throughout their eventful journey from America to London. Though they set off intending to hunt down potential husbands for themselves, what they find has less to do with love and more to do with the repressive nature of turn-of-the-century English society. Shunned as "new money" by London's elite and courted by a slew of noblemen lacking any code of personal honor, the quartet is forced to examine society's focus on social status and personal wealth. Directed by Philip Saville, this film also features Mark Tandy and Greg Wise. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide

5.0étoiles sur 5 Worth seeing... if you ignore Mira Sorvino's accent, Mars 21 2006
Par Un client
A Victorian look into the lives of the wealthy and aristocratic from New England to Old. Right up there with North & South and Wives & Daughters as some of the best BBC productions in recent years. Carla Gugino and Greg Wise are amazing as is the English countryside used for locations. You won't be able to turn this one off. Too bad Wharton never finished the novel as the ending leaves you longing for more.

5.0étoiles sur 5 A wonderful treat!, Juil 10 2002
Par Marcy Gomez (Kansas City, USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: The Buccaneers (VHS Tape)
My sister and I adore this mini-series which was shown in Masterpiece Theater many years ago. Anyone who enjoys turn-of-the-century films such as The Age of Innocence, House of Mirth, The Golden Bowl, A Room With A View and Howard's End or stories of the Astors and Vanderbilts will find themselves enraptured with this tale of 4 beautiful American women who find themselves being courted by sons of the British nobility.

In the center of the story are Nan (Carla Gugino) and Virginia St. George (Alison Eliott), and their friends Conchita Closson (Mira Sorvino) and Lizzy Elmsworth (Rya Kihlstedt) - four young women living in turn-of-the-century America, when social status and wealth were the most important considerations in a woman's life (these were the days of the Astors and Vanderbilts, after all). Early in the story we find Conchita married to Lord Marable and begins her new life with the English nobility. Spurned in Newport and New York social circles because they are considered "new money," Nan, Virginia and Lizzy travel to England to visit Conchita and hopefully try their luck there. With the help of 2 enterprising older women, they soon become the toast of the town and are courted by many handsome, wealthy young men. Virginia and Lizzy vie for the attentions of Lord Seadown (Mark Tandy) who is not quite what he seems. Nan is pursued by the humble but ambitious Guy Thwaite (Greg Wise from "Sense and Sensibility") and the wealthy and reserved Julius, the Duke of Trevenick (James Frain).

The mini-series offers beautiful scenery and costumes, great acting from members of the cast (including veterans Cherie Lunghi, Jenny Agutter, Michael Kitchen and Rosemary Leach) and a thoroughly engaging story. I loved the fantastic mansions, palaces and castles in Newport and England alike and the wonderful intertwining of the American and British sensibilities in the plot. It has "one foot in America and another foot in England," as Masterpiece Theater narrator Russell Baker aptly explains. I highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys top-notch romance/drama!

4.0étoiles sur 5 Who knew?, Nov. 13 2009
Par Donna Harper-Soares ""Drama lover!"" (Brossard, Que. Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This series was not what I expected! I thought that it would be light entertainment, you know, girl meets boy, she's beautiful, he's rich...etc. Instead it delves into British society with the say one thing and "behind closed doors" do another. I was impressed. The only drawback was that it was a little dated. Still really enjoyed it though.
