The period drama titles are color coded as follows:
Gray means it is a movie we know nothing or little about.
Black is something we have heard of but have not seen or can recommend personally. Hopefully the review will be of use.
Blue is something one or both of us have seen and can recommend (*if it has an asterisk it means there's something we fast-forward while watching it).
If you have any questions, please do comment. If it's colored black we should be able to answer some questions about it, and definitely if it's blue.
