Actually, you know, I sat through the whole of Gosford Park just waiting for Judi Dench to turn up. It should've been subtitled "no, everyone except Judi Dench". I could have concentrated better then. Though I'm left feeling that it doesn't matter that I never even remotely figured out who was married to who, what with it being perfectly obvious what the deal was, and the extent to which the posh people didn't matter.

I actually- was expecting it to be better, less obvious, less heavy-handed. More intertwined and subtle.

And I was expecting it to have Judi Dench in it.
