Wow! Such a good movie.

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

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.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

romanticism. and the change of history. exotic landscapes, traditions and rules. and beautiful cinematography. a love story touching not only for its ingredients but for status of reflection of clash between two different cultures and for the last period of British India. the right word for define this series could be delight. not exactly as entertainment but as support for reflection and inspired definition of a period of fundamental transformation. not only social.

after years, basic virtue is flavor of this series. a mixture between love story and fascinated India, force of feelings and strong rules of a society, magnificent images and precise acting. it is an exercise to explore the nuances of impressions about India and it remains an inspired exercise. in same measure, it is a definition of East with the instruments of European vision. slices of magic, drama isles, a beautiful princess and a hansom knight, air of music and sacrifices. window to an universe, it is delicate and tender. romanticism is its key. and the heart of its shadow - flavor. a good option for a Sunday afternoon.

This miniseries came hot on the heels of 'The Jewel in the Crown', 'A Passage to India' and a fascination with all things Indian.Ash (played by Ben Cross, best known for 'Chariots of Fire') and Wally (played by Benedict Taylor, who had featured in children's TV series 'Barriers') were the main players in this drama. Ash had been brought up to think of himself as Indian rather than officer class, and so falls in love with the sultry Anjuli (played by Amy Irving, at that time I think Mrs Steven Spielberg).it was not a bad plot and had some brilliant dialogs i would say good acting overall

I agree with the previous comment. When the miniseries aired, I was dating an Indian girl, and with her whole family we would watch every episode. I read the book years later, and was impressed at how accurately the miniseries followed the book. When it came out on video, it had been years since I saw the original, but I knew something was missing. I hope it is re-released in its entire length.While it is hard to believe Amy Irving as an Indian princess, the acting is superb, the sets are magnificent and the camera work captures it all. This set a standard for TV-miniseries that has never been equaled.
