I’m looking for a film where a rich man falls in love with a maid. I read this book called ‘if you was the only girl’ it is really good and i’ looking for a film with the same kind of plot. Tank you
Hello! The first one I thought of was Maid in Manhattan but that’s not a period drama. 😛 There’s The Making of a Lady (TV film), based on Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Making of a Marchioness, about an educated but penniless woman who marries an older gentleman. Mansfield Park, Pride & Prejudice, Tess of the d’Urbervilles,… Those are the few that I can think of right now where a rich or well-to-do man falls in love with a poorer (middle or lower class) woman. Sorry I couldn’t help! 😦
Hi Mel, Jane Eyre is about a man who falls in love with a governess… not quite a maid but still hired help!
Have you seen Farewell My Queen (2012) yet? Very interesting film on Marie Antoinette!
No, I haven’t yet but I hope to this summer!
Surprised you forgot about Doctor Zhivago and Reds (both set during the Bolshevik Revolution)
With any adaptation of Oliver Twist, do we count them as Victorian or Regency? Dickens first wrote the story in monthly instalments starting in February 1837, King William 4th died 4 months later in June 1837.
You know, I’d never considered this before. I’ve always listed them as Victorian.
