Accidentally left a 3 star instead of a 4 and can’t seem to change it. Regardless, an entertaining film that reminds us that, a) British imperialists are barbarous monsters, b) British nobility and it’s obsession with blood purity is weird, and c) rich people are insane. On a more serious note, genuinely terrific acting and narrative, perfectly setting up the gradual reveal of the villain.
