Set on the cusp of the 19th century in Delhi before the British ruled in that region, the drama depicts the fortunes of the residents of Beecham House, an imposing mansion surrounded by acres of exotic woods and pristine lawns. Tom Bateman (Vanity Fair, Jekyll and Hyde) takes the role of enigmatic, soulful John Beecham, a handsome former soldier who has purchased the magnificent mansion, Beecham House, to begin a new life with his family. Wealthy and distinguished, John has witnessed profiteering and exploitation during his time with the controlling East India Company and has resolved to conduct his business as a trader in a more equitable manner. Determined to escape his previous life, John appears haunted by his past, but is inspired to become an honourable member of the region’s trading community. In spite of John’s good intentions his life is shrouded in mystery and when he arrives at the house with an ‘olive-skinned‘ child named August and two Indian nursemaids, Chanchal (Shriya Pilgaonkar) and Maya (Trupti Khamkar), it causes speculation and gossip amongst the servants that he may be the boy’s father. One of the Indian nursemaids, the beautiful Chanchal, is overly protective and particularly fond of the child. Could she be John’s lover and the mother of August? Lesley Nicol (Downton Abbey) is John’s robust, interfering mother Henrietta who has travelled from England to India to stay with her son. She is accompanied by a young family friend Violet, played by Bessie Carter (Les Miserables) who she is determined to help form a union with John. The pair are accompanied by an old friend of John’s, Samuel Parker, played by Marc Warren (Safe, Hustle) who has also left the East India Company and has returned to India for a fresh start. Samuel helps John to find his brother Daniel who he has not seen for 10 years. John convinces Daniel, Leo Suter, (Victoria) to leave the East India Company and join him at Beecham House. Gregory Fitoussi (Mr Selfridge, Spiral) plays General Castillon, a French mercenary working for the Emperor at a time when the French are challenging the East India Company for India. Castillon is suspicious of John and his motives and conspires to stop John being granted a trading licence. Adil Ray (Citizen Khan, Ackley Bridge) is John’s neighbour Murad Beg who dislikes General Castillon intensely and agrees to help John secure a trading licence. Murad’s daughter, Roshanara, (Kanika Kapur) has an English governess Margaret Osborne, played by Dakota Blue Richards (Endeavour) whose beauty and intelligence catches John’s attention. However, when beautiful Chandrika (Pallavi Sharda) arrives at Beecham House with her entourage she is shown to luxurious guest quarters and immediately insists on seeing August. What secrets does Chandrika bring with her to Beecham House?
喜欢这个奶奶 每一帧都好漂亮 还有奇妙物 没有大起大落 也可以好看
你以为是个温情剧，结果是个神话。打斗场面只有两分钟。还没有小学生打架时间长。
很缓慢的电影，老奶奶带着两个孩子在狐崎生活的小故事，“每天只要有一点点福气就够了”，奇幻类型的，治愈型
過於神奇的劇情，本以為是為賦新詞強說愁，沒想到還真有點不一樣的東西
刚刚看完，来豆瓣一看简介笑死我了，我真的以为木村爱是喜欢那个女生的，所以才故意和男主表白，结果我看完了你告诉我她喜欢的就是男主？？？我不知道是我的脑子出问题了还是咋了，可能因为我就是冲着百合去的所以才坚信她喜欢那个女生吧……总之我一大堆想说的话在看到简介时戛然而止。。。。
结尾居然是这样的。“因为是不同的人所以才会喜欢上。“”有那样的一瞬间就够了。”
*福气不需要那么大，只要每天都有小小的福气就足够了。
文化是用讲故事来传承，电影在讲故事这里音乐语调和画面都很美。
平平淡淡相互守护的没有血缘的家人，还有一只猫咪，什么都能满足的万事屋，很好很好的妖怪邻居朋友，愿经历苦难的人们都能带着希望重新出发。
却被小温柔的一封信击溃
治愈剧 脑洞大开 里面的每一帧都可以截图当桌面 棒
*房子只要有人住，就会变得越来越好。如果好好打理、多称赞它，它会长成很棒的房子，和人是一样的。
这部电影的风格符合日本惯有的温柔，看的时候内心很舒适～
日本影视，拥有的浪漫，扭曲的性格，直白的人心
我可能老了…曾经最喜欢看的类型——动画电影居然断断续续看了一两个礼拜，难道是我没有童心了？明明画风和故事都很治愈，srds一下就打败小蛇也有点太bug了……
6.0/10 剧情是想让人问“这是在干什么”的程度，全片高光都在木村爱一个人身上了，另外两个主角单薄得像个纸片人（没有攻击二次元的意思） 百合床戏倒是拍得不错
3.5
故事不足以成为一个故事，开始和结束都很猝不及防很套路，而且过程有点平淡。
画面美到不行是真的，回忆片段的动画风格也好特别，很棒，这是绝对的。
…跟着字幕组看的 结果是twisted日本三角文学 一面觉得很适合当小说读 一面这个太生硬了（疼）不喜欢为了一男的搞雌竞而来的女同情节
