Period Drama Movies

Over the years I can say that I have watched hundreds of Period Drama series and movies and I thought that it would be a good idea to have a running list of what I've watched or am watching, just to see all the great shows :)

I am so extremely fascinated with anything Edwardian, Victorian, Pioneer, Colonial etc.

If you have any movies that you have watched and that fit the criteria of Period Drama, and you don't see it listed below, feel free to let me know so that I can add them.

As always, if I can provide a link for you to watch online, I will do so.

Now, kick up your heels, grab a hot cup of coffee or tea and indulge in some of the best Period Pieces you'll ever see!

Titles in red are available to view on Netflix.
