Film6.5DramRomantikOn sekizinci yüzyıl Viktorya dönemi... Sarah, 'alt' sınıflardan gelme, sevdiği adamın peşinden gitmiş olduğu için toplum tarafından dışlanmış genç bir kadındır. Toplumun tamamen şekilden ibaret ahlak değerleri tarafından yargılanıp damgalanmış olan bu kadın, en ufak özgürlüklerden bile mahrum bırakıldığı, kıstırılmış bir hayat yaşamaktadır. Yine aynı şekilde, toplumun tamamen gösteriş budalası, samimiyetten uzak kurallarından sıkılmış ama bunu kendisine çok da itiraf etmek istemeyen Charles'la tanışan Sarah, çok da fazla konuşmaya gerek kalmadan aynı duyguları ve düşünceleri paylaştıklarını farkeder. Sarah'ın içinde bulunduğu 'düşük' sosyal sınıfa rağmen Charles, tam anlamıyla bir aristokrattır. Çok fazla ortak noktaları olan bu iki insanın bir arada olmalarını engelleyen belki de en önemli neden de budur. Tabi bir de Charles'ın, zengin bir tüccarın şımarık kızı ile olan nişan düzeyindeki ilişkisi.

Bu dönüş ustaya ilham vermiş gibidir: Kentin son derece başarılı bir fon olarak kullanıldığı, herşeyiyle tipik İngiliz bir seri cinayetler öyküsü izleriz.

Sanki biraz da bunu dengelemek için, katilin peşindeki polis komiseriyle eşinin evlerindeki yemek tartışmaları, ustanın mutfak kültürüne olan büyük ilgisinin bir yansıması ve ayrıca başlıbaşına bir mizah unsurudur. Ve film star oyuncuya sahip değilse de tipik İngiliz, birinci sınıf bir takım oyunculuğu içerir.
