Customer Rating:      Summary: Beware Comment: Beware. If you are looking for the wholesomeness of Wives and Daughters and Pride and Prejudice, this is not it. There is a scene where a woman finds her husband in bed with a man (his lover). Definitely not family-oriented material.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Skip it Comment: I love period dramas, but this was the worst. I did not even finish the movie because it was awful. The immorality alone took it from period drama to pandering soap opera. The characters are weak-willed, lack integrity and make mistake after mistake which they resolve by less than noble means. From homosexuality to abortion to infidelity, this movie was totally tasteless and not deserving of anyone's time or attention. Skip it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Depressing....and well depressing Comment: I usually am a fan of period pieces, but this movie is so depressing. It makes you never want to be a Duchess for sure. It was long and depressing. Don't waste your money.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A great Masterpiece series Comment: The Buccaneers was a BBC mini-series I had seen and greatly enjoyed in 1995. It is the story of four American girls who dream of love with high-society English men. Their happiness is short-lived. The story is very interesting. I was really glad to see it again.
Customer Rating:      Summary: My FAVORITE! Comment: I have watched this movie countless times since it was released on video. It remains my all-time favorite and I now own it on DVD as well. A great addition to the library of any lover of period costume drama. I only wish it was longer.

Deemed nouveau riche and shunned by elitist New York society, sisters Nan and Virginia St. George, along with their friends Lizzy Elmsworth and Conchita Closson (Academy Award winner Mira Sorvino), try their luck in London. The girls' New World spontaneity and impertinence constitute nothing less than a social invasion of Old World society and they soon find themselves courted by a coterie of fascinated admirers. But as the old and new worlds come to clash, something has to give.
