Dan Cruickshank & The House That Wouldn't Die
This unique recreation of an 18th-century home, in London's Spitalfields, has to be seen to be believed. Dan Cruickshank smells the rotting food and warms his hands by the roaring fires and asks whether this living museum is really more accurate than a National Trust treasure, or just an eccentric one-off from its outlandish Californian creator, the late Dennis Severs. A follow-up of sorts to the 1985 BBC series Ours to Keep episode "Incomers" focused on this residence.

Excellent adaptation.
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
