The film opens with a narrated disclaimer over footage of an opening coffin. The narrator explains that the film's climax is so terrifying that it may kill the viewer, and reassures the audience that if they die of fright while watching the film, they will receive a free burial service, and it closes on the casket which has a card inside reading "Reserved for You."[1]
Newlyweds Jenni (Peggy Webber) and Eric (John Hudson) move into Eric's palatial country home. Jenni is Eric's second wife; his first wife Marion died when she accidentally slipped and hit her head on the edge of a decorative pond on the estate. At the home they meet Eric's friends, the Reverend Snow (Russ Conway) and his wife (Toni Johnson), as well as Mickey (Alex Nicol), the developmentally disabled gardener. Eric privately mentions to the Snows that Jenni spent time in an asylum following the sudden death of both her parents, and Mrs. Snow reveals that Jenni is very wealthy.
Jenni is disturbed both by Mickey's belief that Marion's ghost wanders the estate and by Marion's self-portrait inside the house, which Jenni believes resembles her mother. When she begins to hear unexplained screaming noises and see skulls around her house, she believes that Marion is haunting her. Though Eric speculates to Jenni that Mickey, who was a childhood friend of Marion and thus dislikes Jenni, may be behind the trickery, Jenni worries that she is going insane. Eric then suggests to remove Marion's self-portrait from the home. Eric and Jenni take the painting outside and burn it. While they clean up the remains of the painting, a skull emerges from the ashes. While Jenni panics at the sight of the skull, Eric denies that the skull is there. Jenni faints and Eric withdraws the skull and hides it, revealing that he was responsible for the trickery all along in an effort to get hold of her wealth.
Believing she has finally lost her sanity, Jenni resolves to be committed. She tells Eric that the entire property will be meticulously searched for the skull as a last resort. Before Eric can retrieve it, Mickey secretly steals the skull and brings it to the Reverend, revealing Eric's plans. That night, Eric prepares to murder Jenni and stage it as a suicide. Jenni sees Marion's ghost in Mickey's greenhouse and flees back to the house. When she enters, Eric begins throttling her. The ghost then appears and chases Eric outside and about the property; it finally corners and attacks him, drowning him in the decorative pond.
After Jenni regains consciousness, the Snows arrive. Mrs. Snow comforts a hysterical Jenni and the Reverend discovers Eric's body in the pond. Some undisclosed time later, Jenni and the Snows depart from the house. Reverend Snow declares whether or not Marion's death was an accident will remain a mystery.
有人收获纯真美好的爱情，有人守护不完美的婚姻……
开头是tom的婚礼，结尾是老夫人的葬礼。全家南法度假，mary给电影配了个音小暧昧了一把，姐夫全程不在。不过汤马斯为什么要离职，去美国了嘛？
就像是回老家拜访老邻居，聊聊天说说话，看看这几年他们过的好不好，那时候还在地上蹒跚学步的小孩有没有长高，家里老人身体是不是还硬朗。。。

如果是单独的作品那么是三星。特别是头一个小时。但在唐顿庄园的世界观里，这真是一个童话。Molesley求婚的时候看哭了，Barrow提辞职的时候Mary的回应也酸了眼睛。Mary回忆大表哥的时候才想起来，天呐，这都过了多少年了。翻开一看，第一季都是12年前的事情了。最后Mary趴在老管家Carson身上哭的时候感觉又回到了最初的时候。
歌舞都很好很精美但美中不足不够打动人心，从电影角度来看人物塑造不够立体。但歌舞片就是要有歌舞片的样子，有加菲又唱又跳还要什么自行车。
三年或三年内，也许还能再见吗？
唐顿庄园好久不见。这次加入了老爷法国“认亲”，拍电影，老太太去世的情节，把所有人都调动起来。电影的加入和前情中战争对唐顿的影响一样，都在讲与时代的关联，旧事物迎接新事物。大小姐真的魅力无边，我甚至快忘了这几任丈夫都长啥样。
新旧时代的碰撞让唐顿更凸显其魅力。老夫人逝世，大小姐掌家，一集讲齐了生老病死。唐顿庄园，12年了，我永远的心之所属。
对粉丝来说满满的感动
唐顿很奇妙，本身是怀旧，却又能看到时代的变迁
默片向有声电影转换的阶段，唐顿庄园也是走在关键时期。从婚礼到葬礼，到新生命的诞生，都是在艰难的活着。
这是一个关于新旧交替的故事，当唐顿庄园遇到了摩登时代，如何与其融洽并传承。marry接过了祖母管家的指挥棒，借助电影拍摄迅速适应了新时代的变化，父亲通过法国一行回忆祖母年少时的浪漫故事，最后祖母的逝去象征着旧时代的结束，而每个人都在新时代里找到了自己的意义。人物繁杂但刻画细腻，让我一个从未看过唐顿的人都能慢慢理清故事的剧情，油画复古画面极具美感，配乐点缀锦上添花，台词精炼而体现人物特色，金句带着英式独有的幽默频出，这是一部优秀且完美的电影。
十分精致，两个小时的人物塞下这么多人物，几条线交叉进行还不乱十分难得。对于一部剧集都没看过的我来说，主要是影片开头众多人名和陌生面孔要缕清关系有点难，但不影响理解故事。英式幽默一向以来的台词和笑点也是喜欢英式电影的福音。
Downton Abbey也断断续续陪伴了我近10年，还能从Lady Mary口中听到对Matthew的怀念， 从一开始不喜欢Thomas到为他的新人生而激动落泪，还有楼上楼下每一个可爱的人，以及金句制造机奶奶一路走好，无法形容我对唐顿的爱，最后请让唐顿止于此。
孙女是不是《神奇动物在哪里》的女主角？
无论如何，不要放弃写作。我们活着，就是在不断接受一些意料之外的事。
精神唐顿家人。甚至比1还好。南法别墅和庄园电影双线，没想到的剧情安排。还是一如既往地哭着笑着看完全剧，完全忘了身在何处，觉得剧中人就是现在的身边的而不是一百年前的，每一个人物的悲喜都强烈共鸣。
全员出场人物都要有故事线带来的问题就是台词和场次真的太过于密集，但是人家就是有本事全部满满当当塞下并献上华彩段落，对这个系列也算是一个完美的阶段性交代，期待这一大家子还能带来后面的新篇章
这么多年依旧保持水准的我心中的成年童话。演员们特别是mary和老爷都老得好明显，老太太说“别吵，我都听不到我死亡的声音了”～～
