 You will love it January 3, 2009
3 great stories. I went looking for North and South and found this added bonus.
If you love the classics you will love this.
Mesmerizing! December 24, 2008
I recently purchased the Elizabeth Gaskell collection and I absolutely love it! I stay up too late at night because I just have to watch a little bit more! I am a huge fan of period movies and have to rate these among my very favorites. Stellar cast and wonderful adaptations on all three productions.
excellent productions! December 5, 2008
This set is well worth the price. All three are outstanding productions with quality acting and story lines. If you see one, you'll want to see the other ones, so may as well get the boxed set!
Elizabeth Gaskell's Masterworks November 21, 2008
I purchased this video collection because I wanted Wives and Daughters which I saw long ago on PBS and truly enjoyed. I was wonderfully surprised with the high quality of Cranford and the exquisite North and South; this latter story was entirely unknown to me, but now I think I like it the best of the three, even though Wives and Daughters is hard to beat.

5 out of 5 found this review helpful
All three of these shows are so good, you'll be glad to have them on hand to watch again and again. (And in such a compact package that saves shelf space!) North and South gets my nod as the best, but the other two are fantastic as well. Each contains several performances that are marvels of acting--Michael Gambon and Francesca Annis in Wives and Daughters; practically the whole cast of Cranford; and Richard Armitage and Sinead Cusack in North and South. There is also a nice bio of Elizabeth Gaskell included, which was interesting.
A warning to Gaskell fans: The screenwriters are not always faithful to the stories of North and South and Cranford; the results, though, are so entertaining that it's hard to quibble.
