Howards End
The legendary team behind the Merchant Ivory label delivered another masterpiece with this dazzling adaptation of the E.M. Forster's masterpiece. The lives of three families of different classes are connected with the country house of the title in this intricate tale of fate and values that binds them. Brilliantly brought to screen by terrific cast and crew that consists of writer Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, director James Ivory, producer Ismael Merchant, cinematographer Tony Pierce-Roberts and composer Richard Robbins amongst others. Anthony Hopkins, Emma Thompson, Helena Bonham Carter and Vanessa Redgrave deliver outstanding performances with an equally solid support cast. The film stands the test of time as the novel did as well as a peak in the careers of all the talents involved. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
