Boring

I have never watched a documentary about England or Britain that bored me this much before. I've watched ones that didn't cover topics I was interested in, but I had never before watched one that covered topics I liked and made me bored until this one.

People talked about things more than they showcased them in the documentary. They could have done more voiceovers and still showed the events or places. But instead it was mostly inside with people sitting down and talking.

And there were too many shots of cars. Show me the English countryside. Show me London. Show me Scotland. Or Wales. Why am I looking at the inside of a small room at a person in a chair?

Quintessentially London

This doc had the potential to be 10 stars. Unfortunately, the film didn't stick to the title. There was no history, no visiting cities outside England, ridiculous interviewees, and too much political preaching. A drag queen at Chelsea? A clueless young man wearing a silly English flag coat? Actors as expert commentators? No explanation or discussion of British Tea except that it came from China? No mention of Rugby? No discussion of English comedy?

The doc shined with the hat, coat, suit, shoe, and umbrella stores that have been in existence for generations. Watching the tradesmen creating the products was amazing.

There were subtitle hints at political leanings early but the last 30-40 min was almost unbearable. We get it. The film creators were made up of anti-Brexit supporters and non-straight men. This is when the doc felt VERY American - Too much underlying preaching, liberal judging, and pushing the ideal that everyone white is a racist.

This was a very Posh Liberal Londoner perspective.
