I would love to walk this estate. Thanks also for the movie recommendation.

Absolutely loved this movie–the plot, the set, the costume design. It was fantastic! Thanks for the tour. I hadn’t seen it since the movie was released in theaters, so it’s nice to ‘go back.’

Oh my,
that is my dream home, I loved that movie, and the mansion is my dream. It is one beauty.

Cheers,

There is also a great article about the Set Decorator, Katie Spencer for the film “Atonement” that you can read about online.
If you are a fan of the movie or just the house, this explains the details!

Atonement was one of the few films I saw, and that house (and Keira Knightley’s green dress) should have received special Oscars. It was just amazing. Also amazing that the actual estate used for the film is still a private estate; I had no idea that homes like that were still privately owned. I would never leave the house if it were mine.

Oh, me, too, Amy. If it’s not on DVD yet, there’s a good chance I haven’t seen it. I think “Enchanted” was the only movie nominated for an Oscar (for the songs) I had actually seen! It’s a sad case of affairs, frankly.

I haven’t even seen “Atonement” yet–just drooled over the photos of it, so I have no idea if it’s any good or not. (Anyone out there who can tell me?) Somehow I imagine the sets for “No Country for Old Men” and “There Will Be Blood” wouldn’t be quite my thing.

Movies? I’m not sure I’ve watched a good movie this year. I’m too busy watching cartoons with the little ones
This house is perfectly wonderful.
