Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Is the past a foreign country?

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Sly Study of Aristocrats With Their Gaurd Down
Th entire film takes place on the grounds of a sprawling English manor. Young aristocrat Marcus has invited Leo whose background is much more humble to spend the summer at his familys estate. Marcus and Leo are both just about to turn 13--that ripe age with one foot in childhood and one beginning to test the waters of adulthood.
