1917

The acting is wonderful and every actor meets demand of their character - especially Paulina Gaitan portraying Esmiralda and the child actor portraying Lina. The transition of emotions in Esmiralda, specifically when she gives her box to Augusto, and goes to meet Lina, was really wonderful and made me cry. Also, Fernando Luján does extremely well capturing the repentant father as the character of Augosto. Carmelo Gómez gives a solid performance as Iván(a troubled father and husband). Other performances are good.


Esmeralda es una adolescente con una extraña obsesión: colecciona objetos perdidos, olvidados o tirados por gente que no conoce, y los guarda en una caja que tiene debajo de la cama. Esta es la historia de tres objetos de la caja y de la gente que hay detrás de ellos, todos de alguna manera incapaces de conectarse con quién más aman. Es también la historia de la caja misma, y de cómo Esmeralda aprende a abrirla, a sentir y a atesorar lo más valioso de todo: las relaciones humanas. (FILMAFFINITY)

The Monocled Mutineer TV series follows the rebellion that took place at the notorious Etaples Training Camp in northern France on the eve of "The Battle of Passchendaele" in 1917. After the mutiny, the dashing Percy Toplis (Paul McGann) takes flight, dressed as a British officer, soon to embark on a love affair with beautiful young widow, Dorothy, (Cherie Lunghie).
A solder in the First World War, the real Percy Toplis was a rake, rogue and master of disguise who became the most wanted man in Britain. This controversial, acclaimed 1986 four-part BBC dramatisation of high romance, hilarious impudence and savage retribution was adapted by Alan Bleasdale from the book by William Allison and John Fairley.


Экранизация книги 1978 года Уильяма Элисона и Джона Фэрли, в которой они представили свой взгляд на две не до конца выясненные истории – на обстоятельства жизни и смерти «самого разыскиваемого преступника в Британии» начала XX века Перси Топлиса, и на так называемый «мятеж в Этапле», происшедший во время Первой мировой войны в британской армии. В мятеже, по мнению писателей, Топлис хоть и принял непосредственное участие, но лишь по воле обстоятельств.
