Today between designing my year and cleaning, I completed a new experience – exposure to period drama.
And I came to the conclusion that the best moment of dramatic counterpoint comes not from an explosion, not from a death or a joke and not from a pratfall. The best moments of Downton and largely responsible, I believe, for the huge success it proved to be is the display of total dignity in the face of adversity.
And great casting.
Why exactly that should make the eyes well up, I simply don't know.
