Review of Mothering Sunday

Painful (but in a good way) period drama, based on a Graham Swift book, about upper class families devastated by the loss of their young men in WW1, and the journey of a young woman in service who becomes a writer. Good acting, good script, nice to look at...though a bit slow. 

Small quibble about detail - it seems dreamily hot, but it's supposed to be March. Was Spring hotter in the early 1920s?
