Two young men meet at Oxford , impressionable Charles Ryder (Matthew Goode) , though of no family , exception for his father , neither money, becomes friends with aristo Sebastian Flyte (Ben Whishaw) when the latter throws up in his college room through an open window. . He then invites Charles to lunch after his teddy bear Aloysius "refuses to talk to him" unless he is forgiven. Charles becomes involved with Sebastian's family , Catholic peers of the realm in Protestant England. Charles is intrigued by family's curious relation to God and each other. The story is told in flashback as Charles, now an officer in the British Army, is moved with his company to an English country house that he discovers to be Brideshead , Sebastian's family home where Charles has a series of memories of his youth , his yearns and thunderous relations .Love is not ours to control Privilege. Ambition. Desire. At Brideshead Everything Comes at a Price. Every temptation has its price.
A sensitive and touching family saga, concerning enjoyable relationships , good feeling , emotion and moving scenes , including awesome interpretations with outcast roles were pretty well developed . The story is about spiritual values and how they survive in even the most unlikely of circumstance and how God works through people in the most unexpected surprising ways . This polished picture captures adequately a golden moment of youth and then the gradual disillusionment brought by the passage of time . Like all great works , Bridesehead revisited --both book written by Evelyn Waugh (1945) and movie --touches on a great many themes such as : changing characters , alcoholism , ambition , betrayal , adultery , loss of innocence , and most specifically an innocent type of homoeroticism . As the touching script becomes extremely affecting , containing an agreeable message , remembering the true meaning of our existence and the things that actually matter in the troublesome life . Dealing with main starring remembering with full of sensibility and attractiveness his young manhood , his loves , existence and a journey of faith and anguish. The film is good , but being much better the classic TV rendition Brideshead revisited (1981) by Charles Sturridge with Jeremy Irons , Anthony Andrews and Diana Quick .Here stands out the charming relationship between Matthew Goode and Ben Whishaw , in fact the movie seems more comfortable with the peculiar relationship between Charles and Sebastian than the relation between Charles and Julia . The interpretations here are truly nice beyond description , such as Matthew Goode , though really outstanding results to be Ben Whishaw and the attractive Hayley Atwell . Being accompanied by a very good suppport cast , such as : Emma Thompson , Michael Gambon, Felicity Jones, Greta Scacchi , Jonathan cake , Ed Stoppard , Patrick Malahide , Thomas Morrison, Nial Buggy , among others .
Sets are costumes are just so, and a brilliant cinematography by Jess Hall , as well as an evocative and moving musical score by Adrian Johnston. The motion picture was professionally directed by Julian Jarrold though it has some flaws . Jarrold is a good director and actor, descended from the founders of Jarrold Department Store and especially known for Kinky Boots (2005), Young Jane Austen (2007) and Brideshead Revisited (2008).
