THE REMAINS OF THE DAY (SPECIAL EDITION)

Details

• Release Year: 1993
• Genre: Drama
• Plot: Oscar-winners Anthony Hopkins (The Silence Of The Lambs) and Emma Thompson (Howards End) reunite with the acclaimed Merchant Ivory filmmaking team for this extraordinary and moving story of blind devotion and repressed love.; ; Hopkins stars as Stevens, the perfect English butler -- an ideal carried by him to fanatical lengths, as he serves his master Lord Darlington, beautifully played by James Fox (The Servant). Darlington, like many other members of the British establishment in the 1930s, is duped by the Nazis into trying to establish a rapport between themselves and the British government. Thompson stars as the estate's housekeeper, a high-spirited, strong-minded young woman who watches the goings-on upstairs with horror.; ; Despite her apprehensions, she and Stevens gradually fall in love, though neither will admit it, and only give vent to their charged feelings via fierce arguments. Marvelously acted by a supporting cast that includes Christopher Reeve and Hugh Grant, 'THE REMAINS OF THE DAY is absolutely perfect!' (Pat Collins WWOR-TV)
