| ♥♥♥♥♥ | A warning to the non-english natives |
| Many persons write and ask if this DVD has subtitles, closed captions or has Spanish dubbing. I am writing to inform every buyer the following things that I have learned after I bought this DVD
1-This series has NO SUBTITLES NOR IS CLOSED-CAPTIONED. 2-The spoken language is ENGLISH and no one else. 3-The actors, as everyone is aware are ALL BRITISH, so the english spoken is the BRITISH ENGLISH, very pleasant to the ear of the persons who are habituated to it, but not for everyone. 4-Many times I had to rewind and hear again what the actors were saying because the plot is so full of subtleties that if you lose a phrase or even a word you may not understand what is happening. 5-Pay attention to the names and if you are interested, anote them. They are German, Russian, French and other different names that you may not recognized at once. A tip: In the end of each episode, the names are displayed with the name of the actor that played the role. The nicknames also are hard to get: Nicky is Nicholas, the Tzar, Willy is Willhem II, the Kaiser, Vicky is the mother of the Kaiser, Alex is the Tzarina, and so on. Pay attention because they are all cousins and they call each other by their nicknames! Well, these are the drawbacks. If you love a really good series about the 19th century that is one of the best I have ever seen. Even seeing the same episode (there are 13!) twice to understand the plot, I have enjoyed immensely the series. Patrick Stewart as Lenin is unforgettable. The other names of the cast are unknown but magnificent! I would say: Buy this series. Be patient. Hear carefully and rewind if necessary. It is worthwhile. But BBC COULD release this masterpiece at least with closed captions as they did with Henry the Eight and Elizabeth R, other superb series that EVERYONE SHOULD SEE. Deniza Futuro-Brazil |
