Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.

Noutions Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

rosemaryahearn I remember watching this with my Mum when it first came out--I was 16 years of age at the time; Mum and I both LOVED it then. It was our favourite! It has stayed with me since--the beautiful, and haunting, music, the wonderful story, the incredible acting. I found myself yearning, and searching, wondering if I would ever be able to see this miniseries again, and also wondering that if I did get the chance to watch it again, would it still be as lovely as I remember it? Would it stand the test of time or would it be dated? A friend who knew I loved Against the Wind so, was kind enough to gift me with a copy of it recently. Though the video is not the best quality, the brilliance and beauty are still there. I am VERY pleased to say that Against the Wind is everything I remember it to be and so very much more even. Still my all time favourite miniseries. Pure magic! Holds up very well with time--all of it: the dialogue, the exceptional acting, the lovely music, the moving and touching story, the scenery. Everything. VERY HIGHLY recommend Against the Wind!

tinyaus Just watched this again, and as always only wished for more, IE Season 2,3 etc A Brilliant work. Would this be worthy of a re-make or adjunct to the original or just lost in time and translation? I get to the end of the series, episode 13 and each time want the next episode which doesn't exist (13 episodes in total). I thought I saw the Actor Frank Gallacher (Will Price) leaving a coffee shop the other day ? Unfortunately not as the internet seems to say he passed in 2009. Thank you to all who were involved. You all made a difference. . Also commendations to Sindre Kaspersen. . Brilliant commentary. You want to decide before you watch it, read this review . Spot ON .

poeplace I remember anticipating the next night when this mini ran back in the day, rare for me. I thought it was realistic like an Aussie "Centinial". I'd love to see it digitally remastered and released on DVD, and I don't buy the arguments about the length being prohibitive. Please, a lot of crap less worthy and lengthier is already for sale. Like many others, I've looked for it to get re-ran to no avail. Was it as good as I remember? The only complaint I've seen was it was too long. Hello, it was a mini. If a mini is good, who cares if it is long and spread over multiple nights, anticipation is part of the experience. Has anyone heard about this becoming a reality?

cathyshin Man, amazing how many of us saw this as kids and still remember it! Now that said, I mostly recall that I was totally hot for Greville (I must have been about 13) and I can't really remember details of the plot or much else except that I loved watching the thing.I'm another one of those who would love to get this on DVD.I'm actually going to Australia this Sept but wondering if the DVD will play on my American machine. Funny that I've been there twice before and never thought of this. Someone brought up Dr Who, another PBS import that I loved from that era, which made me get all sentimental about watching Poldark, Duchess of Duke Street and Against the Wind :)
