BBC4 has repeated Fortunes of War (1987) with Emma Thompson, Kenneth Branagh, and Rupert Graves, as well as a host of acting talent. Rupert's acting is award-worthy, it's so thoughtful and physical. There is tragedy and humour and ordinariness in there, people caught up in the war, living their lives and almost in denial of what happens around them. The war visits them, affects them in personal, sometimes visceral ways, and yet seems to intrude on them, inconvenient and irritating rather than momentously life changing. There is a timeless, topical quality to this series, as an illustration of how war disrupts ordinary lives. Adapted from The Balkan Trilogy and The Levant Trilogy written by Olivia Manning (1908-1980), and described by writer Anthony Burgess (of 'A Clockwork Orange' fame) as 'the finest fictional record of the war produced by a british writer', it was largely based on the author's own experiences during the war.
