Few literary adaptations have had the combination of success and influence that marked the BBC's 1967 production of The Forsyte Saga. Its success on National Education Television (the precursor to PBS) inspired the networks to experiment with the miniseries format, and it quickly set a benchmark for appointment viewing. This adaptation of John Galsworthy's first two novels stars Damian Lewis (Band of Brothers) as Soames Forsyte, a partner in a thriving law firm and the wealthy scion of a London family. When his wife, Irene (Gina McKee), becomes involved in a tempestuous affair, it upsets the world he's so carefully erected and tears the Forsyte family asunder. A first-rate soap opera, The Forsyte Saga has an accomplished supporting cast, including Rupert Graves (Mrs. Dalloway) and Corin Redgrave (Enigma), and deftly portrays a Victorian family's fierce struggle to survive the social complexities of a new era. Working with an artist's respect for the original series, director David Moore has created an adaptation every bit as enthralling as its predecessor. Barnes & Noble
