They don't make miniseries like this any more. Superb all star cast playing interesting historical characters in a straightforward clear and detailed way. Better than a lot of newer series that muddle things with non linear plots and focus on the obscure and salacious.
Here the reasons for the custody battle financial and otherwise are clearly explained.
Lucy Gutteridge plays the too young widow who gallivants through Europe. Angela Lansbury plays Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney of the Museum game the aunt who alongside the nasty money faced Mother sues for custody of little Gloria. Supporting cast are so well cast including Christopher Plummer as the Father who died.
The sets and mansions are sumptuous. The trial is riveting. Along with Poor Little Rich Girl this one is just superb.
