The Remains of the Day (1993)

1993 · 134 min · Drama, Romance

In interwar Britain, a rule-bound head butler's world of manners and decorum in the household he maintains is tested by the arrival of a new housekeeper. The possibility of romance and his master's cultivation of ties with the Nazi cause challenge his carefully maintained veneer of servitude.

Directed by James Ivory. Starring Anthony Hopkins, Emma Thompson, James Fox, Christopher Reeve and Hugh Grant.
