Savage House
The film
Against the backdrop of 18th century England, a massive pox outbreak, and Jacobite uprising – Sir Chauncey Savage and Lady Savage blindly pursue a better life. It's not without a tinge of irony that their family name is the Savages, for this is a Savage House indeed, filled with duels, decadence, and bloodshed.
The real review
Richard E. Grant and Claire Foy, as Sir Chauncey and Lady Savage, are the only reason to watch this — their performances in a decadent, bloody 18th-century manor are what people talk about. The problem is everything moves at a glacial pace, which kills the story about their blind pursuit of a better life amidst pox and uprising. People loved the dark humor and lush visuals, but the director gets blamed for the plodding, unwatchable crawl that drowns out the fun.
