For the Byron completeist

An excellent intro to the life of Byron. Not an in-depth exploration nor commentary/interpretation. This will give you a good outline of Byron's life to construct your own understanding from further reading.

Byron DVD

Byron DVD was awesome. Biographical, straightforward, honest and realistic. Acting was superb. Jonny Lee Miller is always great!

EXCELLENT BIO=PIC

Without getting into a lot of detail, this film is a well-acted and accurate bio of BYRON, who I always think of as the prototype of the modern celebrity(mad,bad, and dangerous to know!).Nobody does this kind of thing like the BRITS and I enjoyed it a lot. thanks dennis

Love Byron...

I really like this film, it accurately presents the most important facts of Byron's life and all the women he was involved with :)

Sadly, like Life, too short...

Lavish, lovely-to-look at, perfectly cast all-around with people who look very much like their historic counterparts and play their roles flawlessly (except for Shelley), magnificently scored, with a wonderfully nuanced performance by Jonny Lee Miller in the title role, atmospheric, authentic in detail....this BBC Production had everything going for it - except for Time. If only there were an extra hour to cover the sorely overlooked Byronic summer with the Shelley party....and to probe a bit more thoroughly the poetical side of Byron...his relationship with his Last Attachment....his involvement in both Italian and Greek rebellion...the incredible impact of his death on the British conscience...if only...if only instead of Two Parts, this production had been done in Three(or more actually)! This film had EVERYTHING going for it - except Time. The first part is leisurely; the second seems hurried. One other matter: If no one knows of Byron's life, the film will most likely be somewhat confusing. For students of Byron, the film is rich in detail, both period and personal - even down to his nail-biting! Despite its flaws (basically it not being long enough) this is a wonderful look into the life of the man who was "mad, bad and dangerous to know." Highly recommended! And the score should be on CD!!!
