On Release early October  2008 - A provocative and suspenseful period drama telling an evocative story of forbidden love and the loss of innocence during the late 1930's prior to World War II.   Television has inumerable versions of this drama but now been adapted for the cinema.

 Charles Ryder (Matthew Goode) becomes entranced with the elite Marchmain family, first through the charming and provocative Sebastian Flyte (Ben Whishaw), and then his sophisticated sister, Julia (Hayley Atwell).  The rise and fall of Charles’ infatuations reflect the decline of a decadent era in England between the wars.

Academy Award-winner Emma Thompson co-stars as Lady Marchmain. The film, based on Evelyn Waugh’s acclaimed novel is adapted for the screen by multiple BAFTA Award-winner Andrew Davies and Jeremy Brock.  Directed by Julian Jarrold.
