Gosford Park is a 2001 film combining the period drama, mystery pastiche, and social commentary on the class divisions in 1930s England. Incorporating multiple storylines, the film gathers a motley group of guests at the weekend home of Sir William McCordle (Michael Gambon), and tensions both below and above stairs culminate in the lord of the manor's murder. Digital effects for the film were provided by Jim Henson's Creature Shop.
