World on Fire (2019–2023)
9/10
Hopefully a Season Two is planned; Second time around
8 April 2020
I fully enjoyed this Series. The end is a cliff hanger, suggesting a sequel. I hope so.

I enjoyed this movie the second time around as I did the first. Noting some of the comments posted here by others, it is important to remind viewers this is a movie; not an historical documentary.

Lesley Manville as Robina is excellent. She reminds me somewhat of Maggie Smith from "Downton Abbey". Jonah Hauer-King is strickingly handsome and portrays the role of Harry superbly with a captivating ability to convey deepset emotions. Sean Bean as Douglas isso-so; his performance (role) a bit over the top emotionally. Ewan Mitchel as Tommy Douglas plays the perfect smart aleck. Julia Brown as Lois and Helen Hunt as Nancy Campbell bring forth a palpable sense of reality and endurance.

I tend to enjoy more those films where the actors and actresses are from the U.K or Australian/New Zealand. This movie did not disappoint.
