Academy Award-winners Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson star in this moving tale of butler whose devotion to duty prevents him from acknowledging his love for the housekeeper working beside him. Set on a baronial estate in pre-World War II England, this poignant drama of denied romance plays against a backdrop of the growing threat of Nazism in Europe.

Somewhat bewildered that this movie received such high acclaim. Emma Thomson acted superbly, but Hopkins was exhausting as the utterly robotic stereotype charicature of a butler. Definitely not worth your time. As for the political intrique: Well known and tragic for anybody with some knowledge of WWII.

Watched this movie, might I say, during the remains of the day I finished the novel. It is quite a good adaptation of the novel, with few adjustments that one must made when taking a book to the big screen. It doesn't affect the general quality of the story though. I even quite enjoyed a few passage that were words for words. The cast and director have their reputation that speaks for themselves. Very good work. If you read the book, I suggest you watch this movie. If you saw the movie, I suggest you read the book. If you did neither one, I suggest you get on with it.

Acting, writing, cinematography, all great. The acting, especially, is stunning, and it's a deep, meaningful film.
