A sparkling and delightfully mischievous comedy of manners unfolds in Victorian England, where two charming bachelors orchestrate elaborate deceptions to escape societal expectations and pursue romantic entanglement. Both captivated by women who declare they can only love a man named “Ernest,” the gentlemen’s carefully constructed dual lives begin to unravel amidst a whirlwind of witty banter, scandalous relatives, and uproarious mistaken identities. The film's humor doesn’t rely on slapstick, but a keen observation of social hypocrisy and the absurdity of courtship rituals, rendering a particularly airy and ironic portrayal of love and class. It’s a playfully subversive delight, prioritizing astute dialogue and character interactions over plot, offering a relaxing and subtly insightful look at Victorian desires.
