The 20 Best Period Piece Drama Movies of All Time

These incredible period piece drama movies transport us to the past, immersing us in time periods unlike our own.
It can be nice to escape modern troubles by leaping back in time and experiencing the opulence of past time periods. That's the magic afforded to us by period piece drama movies!
Stunning wardrobes, idyllic countrysides, war-torn romances, all taking place in worlds far away from our current lifestyle of ubiquitous technology and instant gratification.
Of course, that's not to say life back in the day was any better or easier than how we have it today. It's just fun to indulge in a little sugar-coated movie drama every now and then!
From Jane Austen adaptations to films about medieval royalty, here are my picks for the best period piece drama movies that take place between the 16th and 19th centuries.
