If you're a fan of Gothic fiction or Peter O'Toole, this is a perfect movie. My only disappointment was that O'Toole didn't get enough screen time, and the first episode is just a build-up to introduce his character. His commanding figure is impressive as always and he will keep you guessing as the strangely seductive and intriguing "Uncle Silas".
The few scenes Peter O'Toole and Beatie Edney share are sizzling and I wish they explored that relationship more – there was enormous potential to it, but I guess they wanted to play it "safe", or probably intended to remain faithful to the novel (I wouldn't know, I haven't read it).
All in all, "Dark Angel" is very enjoyable; you simply can't go wrong with Peter O'Toole.
