 Rating: - A Room with a View of the Passage to Howards End, If You Please"I'm a beautiful, young virgin in Italy. I want my sexual awakening and I want it now!" So says Emily (Georgina Cates) shortly after arriving in Italy in this parody of veddy British films, particularly those of Merchant and Ivory. Along for the journey is Aunt Agnes (Prunella Scales), Emily's near-imbecile brother Edward (Samuel West), Edward's college mate Cedric (Robert Portal), and the hapless servant George (Sean Pertwee). Oh, and if you didn't pick up the Merchant-Ivory connection ... Read More Rating:  - Hilarious parody of Masterpiece Theater Victorian Dramas-I've recommended this comedy to friends and co-workers more than any other movie, and watching it on New Years Eve has become a tradition for myself when I have company over to view the city's fireworks that can be seen from my windows. Everybody who sees it, loves it. Peter Ustinov & Prunella Scales will be familiar to almost everyone over the age of 35, but the entire cast is effective and the young heroine, Georgina Cates, is perfect in the lead. One good line after another, the humor has to ... Read More Rating: - British Aristocracy -- or Hazards of inbreedingThis has to be one of the funniest movies I have seen in a very long time. It is broad -- very broad -- satire of the British Upper Class in 1908. It has the barest of plots but that doesn't detract from the movie because it was never intended to be anything other than what it is -- an exaggerated view of the British Aristocracy. While the dialog is clever much of the humor occurs in the background or in the visuals so the viewer really must pay attention to the details. For example the pub where ...

The sparks between 22 year old Emily, who is being pressured to marry, and George, a representative of "the scum of the earth" carry the movie well, as does the romance between aunt agnes and cedric's uncle. Prunella Scales is so unlike her character in Fawlty Towers you need the credits to prove to yourself that she is the same actress. The characters are convincing if extreme. Rating: - The only movie my husband required me to buy.We saw this movie for the first time on PBS and thought it was hysterical. It's only one of two movies that he can watch over and over again. It's also the only movie he can watch and not fall asleep. It's a little racy, but that's why it's so funny. The whole stoic, staid British never show emotion; makes the movie great. The main reason they go to Italy and India isn't to marry off Emily or prevent her association with George, but because they're driving the butler crazy!! Browse for similar items by category:
