Forster’s classic tale of drama and romance returns to UK cinemas - newly restored for its 25th anniversary - from 28 July http://www.bfi.org.uk/whats-on/bfi-film-releases/howards-end Subscribe: http://bit.ly/subscribetotheBFI. Nominated for nine Academy Awards, this landmark adaptation of EM Forster’s classic novel is about the interwoven fates and misfortunes of three families in Edwardian England. Full of lavish sets and elegant costumes, the film tells the stories of two respectable sisters, Margaret (Thompson) and Helen Schlegel (Bonham Carter), who collide with the world of the very wealthy – one sister benefiting from acquaintance with the Wilcoxes (owners of the beloved country home Howards End), the other all but destroyed by it. Compelling and brilliantly acted, the film remains an entertaining, exquisite and elegant pleasure, as moving and relevant as it was on the day of its original release.

Howards End
A saga of class relations and changing times in an Edwardian England on the brink of modernity, the film centers on liberal Margaret Schlegel, who, along with her sister Helen, becomes involved with two couples: wealthy, conservative industrialist Henry Wilcox and his wife Ruth, and the downwardly mobile working-class Leonard Bast and his mistress Jackie.
