Film version of Evelyn Waugh's novel by the same name. Follows the events leading up to the end of a marriage of an elite English couple in the 1930's. What else could you expect when the wife has no qualms about her selfish habits (including an affair) and the husband is a stick in the mud confined by his sense of tradition?
Viewer Reviews So, I'm a little late. I'm trying to find good British movies. American movies are terrible. This movie is well written, cast, acted, and produced. In short, Tony, the husband is a nut-case (albeit a nice one). Besides Brenda, he is in love with an old, really, really old house. Naturally, Brenda, the wife, gets bored, really bored. She would have to be because she finds her "fun" in another really boring, poor, younger,wimpy mama's boy. Old story told a million times. But from this point on, this story is really different. I enjoyed the twist. It's one that you could never guess. I liked the movie. It's understated as are most British films and I like that. I like their actors. For the most part, they are classically trained and it shows. I give it four stars because the British mumble a lot. That's the bad news. The good news is that you have to keep playing it over and over to figure out what the heck they said.
