In My Father's Den (2004)

A flaw in the sequence of events spoils this show

[6/10 · 21 August 2007]

Not a bad show, if a bit long and slow, but the events leading to the conclusion are totally contradicted in the subsequent flashback ..... READ NO FURTHER IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO KNOW THE ENDING ..... Paul is the main guy. His brother, Andrew, tells Paul that he (Andrew) informed the girl of her true parentage, and that when she asked for proof, fatal consequences ensued; yet later, in the flashback, Paul openly discusses the parentage issue with the girl when he sees her for the last time, prior to her discussion with Andrew on the topic, so she knew the parentage situation and would therefore not have been shocked and demanded proof when Andrew ultimately told her the story! I reviewed this on the DVD, and I cannot see any alternative than a botched sequence of events.
