4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as earlier releases of Cookson's stories
These two movies are dark and unhappy.....not something you want to look at to cheer you up, but they are well done and I guess life did turn out like that in the 19th century UK and those that survived just made the best of a bad situation....but I swear I don't think this is one I will want to view a second time. Buy the earlier DVDs that have 8 movies on them. They...

3.0 out of 5 stars Caterine Cookson boxed set
The Black velvet gown had good acting. The plot was a little weird. It was a little of a let down.
The Black Candle had good acting.

Buy the earlier DVDs that have 8 movies on them. They are a much happy view even with the ends in them not all skittles and beer, you won't lie awake and cry for a fictional character!

This review is from: Catherine Cookson Boxed Set (DVD)
This is a very good set and a good buy. There is only one thing wrong with it, just as Pride and Prejudis it is NOT closed captioned which is a MUST in todays world of Baby Boomers who are getting a LITTLE hard of hearing.

These are good stories, well-acted by British actors whom you will recognize from other British television programs and movies.

If you love period movies, this is a great set to buy. Catherine Cookson's books are wonderful also. You can't go wrong with any of her stories.

4.0 out of 5 stars Two Magnificent Catherine Cookson Stories, October 22, 2011

Catherine Cookson Boxed Set
A wonderful boxed two story DVD of a truly gifted story teller, Catherine Cookson.
I have seen several of her stories on DVD and none of them disappoint. If one enjoys
the Victorian Era, you will be hooked on all the Catherine Cookson DVDs. I was happily
surprised to get the bonus of the Catherine Cookson biography as told by the producer
of these films. The two gentlemen relating Catherine Cookson's story brought her to
life for me. She was a remarkable woman and as fascinating as the tales she tells.
I look forward to reading her many novels. Additionally, my parcel arrived just three
days after I placed my order and in perfect condition; Amazon never fails to please me
as a vendor!

4.0 out of 5 stars Nothing like a Catherine Cookson Story, June 22, 2009
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Catherine Cookson Boxed Set (DVD)
I truly enjoy all of Catherine Cookson's made for TV movies. The locations, period, costumes and actors make for great entertain, even if somewhat gritty, which could be left out, the stories are excellent
