Commentary

The last movie of Downton Abbey did not disappoint. Just the opposite. It tied up every loose end, gave everyone a happy ending, settled all controversies, and gave us a glimpse of a future that is possibly bright. It is set in 1930, the fulfillment of a long trajectory of this aristocratic family from the sinking of the Titanic through the Great War and through the tumult of the 1920s and ending in a time of solidified change.
